Abstract

We investigate theoretically and experimentally the process of stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) in the presence of weak feedback in a single-mode optical fiber. The threshold for the occurrence of Brillouin oscillation can be considerably lower than the threshold for normal SBS. The spectrum of the emitted Stokes light exhibits an extreme narrowing near and above the oscillation threshold. The Stokes intensity is found to exhibit various types of periodic and stable behavior.
