Abstract :
Experimental measurements have been made of the stimulated Brillouin backscatter from CCl2F2gas in the range of pressures from 1 to 5.75 atm. Using narrow-linewidth KrF laser radiation as the pump backscatter efficiencies of up to 35 percent have been achieved, while at low backscatter efficiencies pulses as short as 1.5 ns in width were obtained.
