Abstract

See full text

A technique for measuring the unknown subsurface temperature T of a bulk transparent medium such as sea water by focussing a high intensity pulsed laser beam in a first direction into the water to a predetermined depth D, producing stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) in a second direction opposite to the first direction and generating from the SBS stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) in the second direction, analyzing the spectra of the SRS and determining therefrom the temperature T. The depth D is is selected to insure that the entire SBS pulse is in the water.
