Brillouin spectroscopy (BS) is a versatile method to study the elastic properties of bulk and film-like samples. In contrast to the well established micro-Raman technique such a spatial resolving technique was not yet available for BS. We propose here a new kind of Brillouin microscopy (BM) without using a standard optical microscope, instead we use a home made optical magnifier in combination with a spatial filtering and scanning set-up. We will show that this new Brillouin technique is especially valuable for the investigation of polymers. Recently, a spatial resolution about 1 µ m was demonstrated (J. Phys. D: Appl. Phys. 36 (2003) 2738-2742). In order to prove the capability of BM we present and discuss the mechanical properties of interphases in ’substrate-1/adhesive/substrate-2’ sandwiches.
