Abstract
Brillouin scattering properties in a perfluorinated graded-index polymer optical fiber (POF) with 120 μm core diameter were experimentally investigated using a laser with an operating wavelength of 1.55 μm. The Brillouin frequency shift and the Brillouin bandwidth were 2.83 GHz and 105 MHz, respectively. The calculated Brillouin gain coefficient of 3.09×10−11 m/W was comparable to that of fused silica fibers. The Brillouin threshold power of the 100 m POF was estimated to be 24 W, which we believe can be reduced by employing POFs with smaller cores.
