ABGThe ABg model or Harvey-Shack is a method of describing bidirectional scattering from isotropic or polished surfaces.
CARScoherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering; coherent amplified Raman spectroscopy
DASdifferential absorption scattering; detector angular subtense; dual attachment station
DMSdynamic scattering
DSMdynamic scattering mode
MELmany-element laser; maximum excess loss (MEL) — the many element laser is a laser unit that consists of N like elements of active materials for support with the mode selection of the laser output. The mode selection properties of a many element laser have been experimentally exploited with as many as 10 like elements.
Maximum excess loss is the maximum power lost within a give system (typically a fiber optic communication system) including scattering, dispersion, absorption and coupling loss.
RBSRutherford backscattering spectrometry
SAXSsmall-angle x-ray scattering
SBSstimulated Brillouin scattering; satellite business system
SRSstimulated Raman scattering
SSsingle scattering
