Time-domain Brillouin imaging of sound velocity and refractive index using automated angle scanning

We present a picosecond optoacoustic technique for mapping both the longitudinal sound velocity v and the refractive index n in solids by automated measurement at multiple probe incidence angles in time-domain Brillouin scattering. Using a fused silica sample with a deposited titanium film as an opt...

description We present a picosecond optoacoustic technique for mapping both the longitudinal sound velocity v and the refractive index n in solids by automated measurement at multiple probe incidence angles in time-domain Brillouin scattering. Using a fused silica sample with a deposited titanium film as an optoacoustic transducer, we map v and n in the depth direction. Applications include the imaging of sound velocity and refractive index distributions in three dimensions in inhomogeneous samples such as biological cells.
