Raman scattering: interaction between light waves and
the vibrational modes of silica molecules
Spontaneous process
Arbitrary direction
-
Brillouin scattering: light scatter from acoustic
waves
Thermal motions of atoms in a material
create acoustic vibrations, which lead to
density variations.
The incident light is reflected from a three-
dimensional diffraction grating (Bragg
reflection)

-
Self phase modulation (SPM): signal phase changes
with signal intensity (Kerr effect)
Kerr effect: refractive index changes with optical power
intensity
-
SPM: cause pulse broadening
-
Cross phase modulation (XPM): power fluctuation in
one channel is converted to phase fluctuation in other
channels
XPM causes pulse broadening and crosstalk
-
Four wave mixing (FWM): three optical frequencies mix
to produce a fourth intermodulation frequency
Channel spacing and fiber dispersion are small enough
