← ScienceWhich consequence results when stimulated Brillouin scattering gain exceeds loss?
A)Optical phase conjugation emerges rapidly✓
B)Fiber fuse propagation is initiated
C)Parametric amplification bandwidth increases
D)Self-phase modulation becomes negligible
💡 Explanation
Optical phase conjugation occurs because of intensity-dependent refractive index changes via the third-order nonlinearity initiating stimulated Brillouin scattering. Therefore, phase conjugation emerges rapidly, rather than fiber fuse, which involves thermal damage; parametric amplification relies on different nonlinear processes.
