亚波长介质光栅的制作误差分析

利用严格耦合波理论（RCWA）分析了方向误差和面形误差对亚波长光栅衍射效率的影响. 通过分析发现,方向误差和图案边缘钝化对光栅的衍射效率影响不大,而刻蚀过程中由于侧壁倾斜而产生的面形误差对光栅的衍射效率影响非常大.在制作亚波长光栅时,可以通过选取合理的刻蚀系统或增大占空比的方法来避免基底型误差的出现.该结论对于制作亚波长光栅具有重要的指导作用.同时根据得出的结论,选用专门用于硅深刻蚀的等离子体辅助刻蚀系统制作出了红外30 μm亚波长抗反射光栅,检测结果显示,光栅沟槽侧壁陡峭且透过率和设计值吻合得比较好.     

新型衍射光学聚焦透镜元件设计

近年来，随着衍射光学技术的发展和应用，利用衍射光栅进行光束的谐波分离成为各国研究的新热点。我们基于傅里叶模矢量衍射理论方法设计了一种聚焦透射光栅（FTG）元件，它需要3种光学元件（谐波分离光栅、光束取样光栅及聚焦透镜）将实现的功能集成于一体。FTG的结构类似于离轴的菲涅尔波带片，它能将入射的平面波聚焦到一点。由于FTG针对三倍频光设计，只有三倍频光通过它后会聚焦到一点，而基频和二倍频光将直接通过，从而同时实现谐波分离及聚焦功能，而利用反射光即可实现对三倍频光的取样，原理见图1。     

相位光栅分离双波长宽角度光线的理论分析

使用衍射光栅的分色分光方式一般以平行光入射情况为讨论基础,对于非平行光入射的情况讨论较少.本文基于菲涅尔衍射理论和角谱理论,将球面波与平面波的衍射波场联系起来,从而在传播函数中引入角度参量,结合分数泰伯效应的理论基础,推导出双波长宽角度入射光线经相位光栅衍射后的波场分布函数,并对推导出的函数进行数值模拟,得到像面不同位置衍射波场分布.与平行光入射时的标准波场分布相比较,得到宽角度入射时的衍射波场的横向展宽量和偏移量.通过调节光栅台阶的宽度,改变衍射场的展宽和偏移,使各个单一波长的衍射波场宽度小于光栅周期的一半,从而减少双波长光衍射波场的混叠.同时本文给出波场宽度与光栅台阶宽度的变化关系,选取光栅面上多个位置作为台阶宽度的计算点,并对整个光栅的台阶宽度进行曲线拟合,得到可以使双波长宽角度入射光实现良好空间分离的光栅参量.该结果可用于各类宽角度入射光线的光谱分离场合,如双波长成像、液晶显示和液晶投影等.

亚波长光栅的偏振闪耀特性

 使用琼斯矩阵的方法推导了连续结构亚波长光栅的衍射方程,给出了光栅衍射效率表达式,对偏振特性与衍射特性进行了研究。发现连续结构亚波长光栅仅存在３个衍射级,总衍射效率为100%,且衍射效率可在衍射级间任意分配,0级的偏振态与入射光的偏振态相同,±1级衍射光偏振态与入射光无关,－1级为左旋圆偏振光,＋1级为右旋圆偏振光。通过设置入射光偏振态与光栅相位延迟等参数,可使光栅具有闪耀特性,据此可用于设计高效偏振光分束器和偏振光开关。

Bloch function approach for parametric gap solitons

Using a Bloch function approach, we predict the existence of parametric gap solitary waves in a grating structure with quadratic nonlinearity. These waves consist of mutually trapped envelopes at the fundamental frequency and at the second harmonic, which are not sustained by any equivalent cubic nonlinearity.     

Study of field distribution,acoustical efficiency and harmonic generation for pseudo-interdigital surface-wave transducers by a finite-difference method

A pseudo-interdigital Rayleigh-wave transducer consists of an ordinary grating deposited on a quartz crystal surface and a counter electrode separated from the grating by a dielectric layer. The electric potential distribution from this transducer is calculated, in an isotropic approximation, under small piezoelectric coupling conditions, using a numerical relaxation technique (Frankel-Young's Method). Potential maps are given as the thickness e and permittivity ? of the dielectric layer are varied.A figure of merit is defined and its value as a function of e and ? are shown. Express ions for the spatial harmonic content are derived from the superficial potential distribution and compared to the case of interdigital combs (according to H. Engan). Some experiments on both types of transducer are given and the results obtained are consistent with theoretical calculations.

Optimal corrections of the optical defects by minimizing the caustic merit function

Summary Until recently corrections of the defects of the optical system in the lens design such as a triplet lens system have been based on classical conceptions of the image formation through refraction surfaces of the system, or based on the third-order Siedel's aberration coefficient. This paper continues emphasizing the use of the caustic merit function, that describes the spread of the caustic surfaces from an ideal image point. This caustic merit function is then used to optimize a triplet lens. Results show that optimizing the caustic merit function is still the fastest and an effective method in the optical design in the case of plane waves.     

Properties of a Second Harmonic Gyrotron Cavity with Internal Blazed Grating

Spectral domain analysis, scattering matrix analysis and PIC simulations are used here to design a second harmonic gyrotron cavity with an internal blazed grating which favors operation at the second harmonic of the electron cyclotron frequency rather than operation at the electron cyclotron frequency itself. Based on these simulations, the cavity design is optimized. The results show that a new gyrotron with higher power and higher frequency can be achieved by incorporating such a blazed grating.     

Higher-order extremely asymmetrical scattering

Extremely asymmetrical scattering (EAS) is a type of Bragg scattering in periodic gratings, that occurs when the diffracted order satisfying the Bragg condition (scattered wave) propagates parallel to the grating boundaries. Previous studies were concerned only with first-order EAS that was shown to be a highly unusual type of scattering, characterised by a strong resonant increase of the scattered wave amplitude (i.e. the amplitude of the first diffracted order). In this paper, a rigorous numerical study of higher-order EAS is presented for the case of bulk TE electromagnetic waves in planar holographic gratings of various amplitudes and widths. In particular, it is demonstrated that typical scattered wave amplitudes in higher-order EAS are significantly smaller than those in first-order EAS, and display strongly different dependencies on grating width, grating amplitude, distance from the front grating boundary, etc. Similar to first-order EAS, second-order EAS is shown to be strongly sensitive to small variations of mean structural parameters at the grating boundaries. EAS in non-sinusoidal gratings is investigated in detail with special focus on the transition between first-order EAS and second-order EAS in such gratings. Tolerance of second-order EAS to the presence of the second grating harmonic is analysed. The effect of phase of the second grating harmonic on transitional EAS is investigated. Physical explanation of the predicted effects is presented.     

Ultrawide-bandwidth slow-light system based on THz plasmonic graded metallic grating structures

We explore a novel mechanism for slowing down THz waves based on metallic grating structures with graded depths, whose dispersion curves and cutoff frequencies are different at different locations. Since the group velocity of spoof surface plasmons at the cutoff frequency is extremely low, THz waves are actually stopped at different positions for different frequencies. The separation between stopped waves can be tuned by changing the grade of the grating depths. This structure offers the advantage of reducing the speed of the light over an ultrawide spectral band, and the ability to operate at various temperatures, but demands a stringent requirement for the temperature stability.     

Pulse shape analysis of second harmonic and difference-frequency generation

A computer model has been used to investigate the pulse shape evolution of interacting waves during second harmonic generation and difference-frequency generation processes. Using general assumption and coupled equations theory we describe in detail the back and forth energy transfer in connection with pulse shape. Two type of phase-match (modal phase-match and quasi-phase-match) with experimental relevance are discussed. In the case of quasi-phase-match uniform and chirped grating are discussed. The connection of the model with material properties and non-linear optical (NLO) strength is presented. The proposed model have allowed us to derive the essential feature of pulse shaping and compressing that rely on NLO process only.     

声表面波在声栅上的反常Bragg衍射

本文讨论了在考虑基片各向异性因素时,声表面波在声栅上的Bragg衍射现象。理论分析时,将有关波式和不同模式之间的差别唯象地以它们对应的相速不同来表征之,而不具体讨论这些波式或模式的偏振特性。在分析时,与讨论声-光反常Bragg衍射情形一样采用二波近似,但不借助于引入对应于极化矢量那样的量,而直接由栅区声速分布给出各波式之间的耦合系数。由此而得出的“反常Bragg衍射”公式,与声-光情形下采用极化矢量概念给出的公式一一对应。由这些公式计算的结果,与实验结果良好地符合。 关键词：     

等离子体光栅靶的表面粗糙度对高次谐波产生的影响

极紫外光和软X射线由于其波长和脉冲持续时间极短,可用于超快物理过程和物质微观结构的探测.最近几年,研究人员发现激光和等离子体相互作用可以产生持续时间极短(阿秒)且相干性较好的高次谐波辐射,其波长可接近甚至达到水窗波段.然而,实验研究指出,理论上应出现的一些谐波在实验中并没有出现.本文针对超短超强激光与非理想条件下的等离子体光栅靶相互作用产生高次谐波的物理过程进行了理论分析和粒子模拟.研究结果表明,等离子体光栅的周期性结构对于高次谐波的频谱和辐射角分布存在显著调制效果.光栅靶表面粗糙度直接影响光栅的光学调制效果,改变高次谐波的频谱分布和辐射角分布.理想光栅条件下,满足光栅匹配条件的特定阶数谐波明显获得增强,且辐射张角集中在平行靶面的方向.靶表面粗糙度的出现,导致光栅匹配条件失效,高次谐波能量向各阶分散且辐射张角逐渐偏离靶表面方向.研究结果较好地解释了实验中观测到的谐波频谱分布,为进一步的研究提供了一定参考.
