三维光子晶体典型结构完全禁带的最佳参数理论分析

基于平面波展开法，理论分析了晶格结构、填充率、介电常数比等因素对fcc，diamond，woodpile三种三维光子晶体典型结构完全禁带的影响.三种结构中，fcc结构由于高对称性导致的能级简并，只适用于密堆积排列的反蛋白石结构；diamond结构非常容易产生高带隙率的完全禁带，并且可以通过调节多项参数得到所需的完全禁带；woodpile结构参数调节范围比较宽，为实验制备带来方便.对于不同的三维光子晶体结构，随着介电常数比的增大，完全禁带的宽度和带隙率也会随着增大.还发现了一些以前未引起注意的现象. 关键词： 三维光子晶体 完全禁带 介电常数比 带隙率 平面波展开法

静态高压下氢的金属化研究与非弹性X射线散射技术

高压下氢的研究一直是高压物理实验和理论研究的热点,这源于人们对压致金属态—金属氢的追求。氢的压致金属化归根结底是氢的电子结构变化。在压力作用下,氢的电子结构会从低压下的宽禁带绝缘体转变为高压下的窄带隙半导体,最终成为超高压下带隙闭合的金属态。然而,多年来,由于实验条件所限,一直无法对氢的宽禁带带隙和电子结构进行直接实验观测。本文将介绍氢金属化实验技术方面存在的挑战和经历的发展,以及利用新近发展的基于同步辐射非弹性X射线散射技术首次对宽禁带固态氢带隙的研究和相关技术突破,并探讨其可能的发展趋势和方向。

基于自发辐射相干效应的可调光子带隙反射率的提高方法

光子带隙是指某一频率范围的波不能在周期变化的空间介质中传播,即这种结构本身存在“禁带”,并已成功地应用于滤波器、放大器和混频器等器件的设计中.此前,许多专家都致力于提高带隙的反射率,但其只能逐渐接近1.本文在囚禁于一维光晶格中的冷原子介质中实现两个可调光子带隙,并通过选择两基态为精细结构的三能级∧型原子系统,考虑自发辐射相干效应来探究这两个带隙的反射率.适当调节参数,探测场出现增益,从而获得较高反射率的带隙结构,甚至可以超过1.此外,两个带隙反射率还可以通过调节偶极矩之间的夹角以及非相干驱动场强度等参数来操控.     

Experimental and calculated research on a large band gap constituting of tubes with periodic narrow slits

A new band gap structure composed of a square array of parallel steel tubes with narrow slits is presented. The propagation of acoustic waves in a two-dimensional composite medium constituted of slit tubes in air is investigated both theoretically and experimentally. The band gap is calculated with the finite element method in which the acoustic-solid coupling is taken into account. The transmissions of the band system with both different single-width narrow slits and multi-width narrow slits are analyzed. Experimental measurements show that the transmission through an array of slit tubes with periodic narrow slits drops to noise level throughout frequency interval in good agreement with the calculated forbidden band. The large band gap and low starting frequency is obtained by arranging different width of slits embedded in the tubes. The experiments and theoretical results show that this new band gap structure has an especial character based on the resonant cavity playing an important role on the band gap besides the traditional Bragg interference.     

Characteristics of microwave filters based on microstrip photonic bandgap ring structures

We study the characteristics of microstrip ring exhibiting photonic band gap properties. Since the stop band is caused by the reflection of electromagnetic waves at the narrow gap introduced in the ring, the geometry of the ring can influence on the characteristics of stop band. The center frequency of the stop band is determined mainly by the outer ring radius when the line width of the circular ring is rather narrow. But it is determined mainly by the mean ring radius when the ring is not a circular form or the line width of circular ring is wide. The frequency range of the stop band can be varied by a reactive component mounted on the gap. The presence of capacitor (inductor) on the gap decreases (increases) the center frequency and the frequency range of the stop band. Moreover, the stop band can be widened by modifying the geometry of ring. These properties can be useful in the applications to the compact microwave circuits, tunable filters and microwave switches.     

Tetragonal photonic woodpile structures

The photonic properties of dielectric woodpile structures with face-centered-tetragonal (fct) and body-centered-tetragonal (bct) lattice symmetries are theoretically studied. Computational calculation of the photonic band structure reveals a photonic band gap between the second and third photonic band in both symmetries. A complete photonic band gap is not found in the bct structure due to a band gap shift with variable direction of lightflow. When the degree of layer disorder in fct woodpiles is increased, the stop bands slightly narrow and the attenuation of the optical transmission is reduced. Even so, layer-to-layer misalignment in dielectric woodpile structures may be tolerable up to 20–30% in most applications. The complete photonic band gap in fct woodpiles remains open with planar layer-to-layer disorder up to 60–70%.     

Surface plasmon resonance transmission filters at 1053nm based on metallic grating with narrow slit

Metallic gratings with narrow slits can lead to special optical properties such as strongly enhancing the transmission and considerably strengthening the polarized effect. A narrow-band filter suitable for application in optical communication is designed by sandwiching a metallic grating between two identical dielectric films. The maximum transmission can reach 96% after optimizing the parameters of films and grating at a central wavelength of 1053 nm. It is the first time, to our knowledge, that such high transmission has been reported since the discovery of the extraordinarily high transmission through periodic holes or slits; moreover, the extremely polarized effect is also found in P mode of this symmetric grating.

Role of propagating slit mode in enhanced transmission through slit arrays in a metallic films

The mechanisms responsible for enhanced transmission of electromagnetic wave through an array of subwavelength slits in a metallic film are analyzed. Theoretical model of the enhanced transmission which takes into account the penetration of electromagnetic field into real metal is developed. Semi-analytical model based on Fabry–Perot formula is considered. Comparison of theoretical model, semi-analytical model and results of numerical simulation of Maxwell equations in time-dependent form (FDTD method) for silver with various geometric parameters is presented. The roles of surface plasmons and plasmon localized along slits are studied.     

Structural Transition from Ordered to Disordered of BeZnO_2 Alloy

Employing Monte Carlo simulations based on the cluster expansion,the special quasi-random structures and first-principles calculations,we systematically investigate the structure transition of BeZnO_2 alloys from the ordered to the disordered phase driven by the increased synthesis temperature,together with the solid-state phase diagram.It is found that by controlling the ordering parameter at the mixed sublattice,the band structure can vary continuously from a wide direct band gap of 4.61 eV for the fully ordered structure to a relatively narrow direct band gap of 3.60 eV for the fully disordered structure.Therefore,a better optical performance could be achieved simply by controlling the synthesis temperature,which determines the ordering parameters and thus the band gaps.     

Multiple narrow bandpass optical filters based on one-dimensional rugate photonic structures of two periodicities

A theoretical analysis of a design of multiple narrow bandpass filters based on one-dimensional (1D) rugate photonic structures with a period jump defect is presented. The optical properties, including transmittance and energy density distributions, are numerically calculated using the propagation matrix method. Our results show that multiple resonance transmission modes are produced when the period jump defect is introduced into the 1D rugate film. Both blueshift and redshift of the stop band of the rugate structure and wavelengths of resonant modes are observed, depending on the change of period jump. The number, the wavelengths, the band intervals, and the intensities of multiple resonance transmission modes are tunable by adjusting structure parameters of the rugate structure. Experimental feasibility of the proposed multiple narrow bandpass optical filters using the technique of glancing angle deposition is also discussed.     

Single-layer metal nanolenses with tight foci in far-field

In simulations we analyze performance of plasmonic nanolenses made of a single metal layer. We consider the nanolenses in two configurations. In the first, the nanolens is a free-standing silver layer with no hole on the optical axis and double-sided concentric corrugations. In the second, the nanolens has a set of slits instead of grooves. This necessitates integrating the annular metal elements with a dielectric matrix. We examine the following parameters of the nanolenses: film thickness, diameter of an on-axis stop, and lattice constant of slits or double-sided concentric grooves, as well as depth and width of grooves. Due to radially polarized illumination lenses have foci of full widths at half maxima (FWHMs) better than half a wavelength, though foci formed by propagating waves do not decrease beyond the diffraction limit. Due to proper geometry of slits or double-sided grooves lenses have focal lengths of the order of a few wavelengths. Transmission of light through lenses with double-sided narrow grooves reaches 30% while through ones with slits exceeds 80%.
