초록

We have combined Brillouin scattering experiments and fucdamental optics theory to determine the birefringence of single crystals. Double refraction in anisotropic materials give rise to doublet peaks in Brillouin spectra. With the incident plane orthogonal to the optic axis, the birefrigence of the materials can be determined from one spectrum. We present the Brillouin spectra to confirm this fact for a single crystal $PbMoO_4$.
