FAQ

What is the Brillouin shift?

Brillouin shift is measurement of frequency shift of light due to its interaction with acoustic phonons or mechanical vibrations in a material. Brillouin shift is usually measured using the Hertz for Frequency. Note that the value of Brillouin shift is always positive.

Can the Brillouin shift be negative?

No, the Brillouin shift, measured in Frequency cannot be negative.

What unit is used to measure Brillouin shift?

Brillouin shift is usually measured using the Hertz[Hz] for Frequency. Petahertz[Hz], Terahertz[Hz], Gigahertz[Hz] are the few other units in which Brillouin shift can be measured.
