An experimental study of the stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) were performed by performing optical phase conjugation in open cells and multimode optical fibres using a Q-switched, pulsed Nd:YAG laser (λ = 1.064μm). Experiments were done with test tubes that contained two SBS liquids - Fluorinert and Acetone, and multimode optical fibres with 62.5μm core diameter. The three fundamental parameters of SBS: the threshold energy, reflectivity and phase conjugate fidelity were characterised and analysed. In addition, the temporal behaviour of Stokes beam, phase correction, optical breakdown, and pulse compression were investigated. / Thesis (M.Sc.)--School of Chemistry and Physics, 2005.
