Abstract
We study the instantaneous response of stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) in a fiber system phase modulated by a binary sequence waveform. The buildup time constant of SBS kinetics is investigated analytically and experimentally. A series of binary sequences with adjustable dwell time and sequence period is constructed in order to examine both buildup and suppressing processes for SBS in 15 m short fiber. For a fiber system with SBS buildup time constant within several nanoseconds, the Stokes intensity can be effectively suppressed by implementing a binary sequence phase modulation with a dwell time close to or even less than the buildup time constant. Stokes intensity can be suppressed in several sequence periods, which exhibit a damped-oscillation-like trend.
