a Experimental setup. b Measured cavity transfer function (FSR = 1.176 GHz and δν = 2.8 MHz, thus F = 420). c Measured SBS gain curve (SBS shift is 9.655 GHz). d Cavity resonances and Brillouin gain curve. Parameters: Resonator length, L = 8.78 cm, β2 = 0.382 ps∘/km, β3 = 0.00273 ps3/km and nonlinear coefficient (γ) = 10.8/W/km.
