Investigation of stimulated Brillouin scattering switching in mid infrared fibersBackward stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) has been experimentally studied in midinfrared transparent AgCl and KRS-5 fibers. In the present scheme, pump transmission through the fibers and acoustooptic radiative effects are simultaneously observed. The SBS shifted scattered light spectrum is investigated by laser heterodyne spectroscopy using HgCdTe and very fast metal-oxide-metal diode broadband mixers. The results suggest that reflection under high incident laser power departs from simple Fresnel surface reflection.
