Difference between Brillouin spectroscopy and Photoacoustic spectroscopy

If i understand correctly both methods employ passing a beam of light through the sample, but what is the difference in output that they get then?
Thank you for the answers

Dear
mark-sev
;
With a “photoacoustic spectrometer” you are able to measure a spectrum of a gas with the dependency of the wavelength, similar to a normal optical spectrometer.
You may also read on:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photoacoustic_spectroscopy
(Also non-dispersive spectrometers are possible.)
With the “Brillouin spectrometer” you measure a physical property of a (“mostly”) solid: over light scattering you measure the acoustic wave behaviour of the solid in different directions.
You may start with:

I hope to have been of some help to you.
Good Luck!
