Abstract

We present a new approach for high-resolution spectral analysis based on Brillouin lasing. Unlike conventional Brillouin spectrometers, we exploit the wavelength dependence of the Brillouin frequency shift which changes by ~55kHz for every 1GHz of optical frequency. This enables continuous monitoring of the entire C-band (4THz or 25nm) with 28MHz (or 0.2pm) resolution in just 5ms. Our all-fiber system utilizes off-the-shelf components, providing a simple solution for high-resolution, broadband spectral analysis.
