Abstract
Efficient pulse compression using stimulated Brillouin scattering in a fiber is proposed where the pump pulse transmitted through the fiber is immediately loopbacked to the fiber with its frequency downshifted by the amount equal to the Brillouin frequency shift of the fiber. The effect of the steepness of the front edge of the pump pulse on the compression performance and the influence of the spontaneous Brillouin scattering on the stability of the compressed pulses are numerically studied. A preliminary experiment of the proposed scheme is also reported.
