Abstract :
The author demonstrates a novel technique for measuring stimulated Brillouin scattering spectra that uses a simple setup with narrow electrical-bandwidth electro-optical components and instruments. The technique provides direct measurement of the amplitude and phase of the Brillouin gain and loss spectra with high frequency resolution and stability
