Talk:Brillouin spectroscopy

Visible light frequency
This page states that visible light has a frequency of about 1014 GHz. In fact, 600-nm light has a frequency of 500 THz (or 500,000 GHz). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.11.30.234 (talk) 17:35, 22 December 2017 (UTC)
 * The anon from 2 years ago is correct. Furthermore, the article states "the energy imparted on an incident photon from a phonon is relatively small, generally around 5-10% that of the photon's energy" but also "phonons involved in Brillouin scattering are on the order of 0.1 – 6 cm−1". Let's assume a 1064 nm laser is used (in round numbers this is 10,000 cm-1 or 300 THz). 5% of that is 500 cm-1. Something isn't right here. Pelirojopajaro (talk) 14:38, 22 November 2019 (UTC)

Article name change
Hi, I believe the article should be called "Brillouin spectroscopy" instead of the current "Brillouin Spectroscopy" (which has the capital "S"). Basically all other spectroscopy articles follow that convention, such Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, etc. Thoughts? Best, --Blue.painting (talk) 00:26, 8 April 2019 (UTC)
