| contents | We consider Brillouin scattering on short-lived phonon modes, such that the relative Brillouin shift between propagating and scattered waves is smaller than the relative width of phonon modes. In this case one phonon mode facilitates scattering between many pairs of optical modes. We show that in this limit two phonon modes are sufficient for cascade Brillouin scattering (one forward propagating wave and one counter propagating wave), and that the cascade behavior is qualitatively different from the cascade in conventional Brillouin systems with distinct phonon modes for each optical mode pair. In particular, our results show that there is a pump threshold above which many optical modes become excited simultaneously, as opposed to a cascade gradually building up. The resulting cascade scattering can be exploited for frequency comb generation with uniform amplitudes and without the need for anomalous dispersion in the medium. |
