Design of internal Brewster guided-mode resonance filter

An internal Brewster guided-mode resonance （GMR） filter is designed. For this kind of GMR filter, the Brewster reflection occurs at the interface of grating/waveguide layers rather than at the interface of air/grating layers. At Brewster angle of 60~, the GMR filter owns almost 100% reflection at the resonance wavelength of 800 nm with the full-width at half-maximum （FWHM） of 0.2 nm. Its angle response changing with the fabrication deviation is also discussed.     

电介质膜对受抑全内反射结构中古斯-汉欣位移的增强

受抑全反射结构中,反射光束和透射光束的古斯汉欣(Goos-Hanchen)位移同时存在,对称双棱镜结构的受抑全反射古斯汉欣位移通常只有波长量级,在实验中很难测量。计算了在入射角大于棱镜与空气界面的临界角小于棱镜与薄膜界面临界角时,镀有电介质膜的对称双棱镜的受抑全反射过程中入射光束的反射系数和透射系数的复数表达式。利用稳态相位法计算得出透射光束和全反射光束的古斯汉欣位移。结果表明,反射光束和透射光束古斯汉欣位移量相同,与入射角大小、薄膜厚度以及空气层厚度有关。在入射角小于但接近棱镜与薄膜界面的临界角,薄膜厚度和空气层厚度一定时,古斯汉欣位移量共振增强达到波长的数百倍。     

Nonpolarizing and tunable perpendicular dual-grating guided-mode resonance filter

A perpendicular dual-grating (PDG) guided-mode resonance filter was constructed by placing two identical waveguide gratings close to and their grooves perpendicular to each other. Multilayer waveguide theory was used to estimate the resonant wavelength for the TE and TM polarization incidences, and the rigorous coupled wave analysis (RCWA) was used to investigate the resonant wavelength, the lineshape and linewidth of the resonant peaks for arbitrary polarization incidences. The filter presents identical spectral characteristics for normally incident wave with arbitrary polarization. The separation of the resonant reflection peaks corresponding to the TE₀ and TM₀ split modes were realized by properly selecting the geometrical and material parameters of the grating layers and the waveguide layers. Measurement of the nano air gap between 0 and 0.4 p by determining one of the two resonant reflection peaks of the TE₀/TM₀ split modes was achieved without being interfered by the TM₀/TE₀ split modes.     

Analysis of Oversized Sliding Waveguide by Mode Matching and Multi-Mode Network Theory

Transmission and reflection coefficients of hybrid modes in the sliding waveguide are discussed on the basis of mode matching method and multi-mode network theory. It is confirmed that the decrease in power of < 0.2% at 84 GHz is obtained for 2 cm in gap of the sliding waveguide which is composed of the corrugated waveguide with 88.9 mm diam. and the smooth-wall waveguide with 110 mm diam. At the sliding length near multi-half-wavelength in vacuum, transmission and reflection powers in the sliding waveguide change slightly, because the very small amount of standing wave in high higher-mode is produced resonantly in the gap.     

Guided-mode resonance Brewster filter

A new type of optical filter is predicted theoretically and verified experimentally. The filter operates under guided-mode resonance conditions in a thin-film waveguide grating. A high-efficiency reflection filter response is produced at the Brewster angle at which TM reflection is classically prohibited. Low-reflectance sidebands are obtained that are adjacent to the resonance peak induced by the Brewster effect in the neighborhood of the resonance peak. A double-layer waveguide grating yields 94% experimental reflectance at the thin-film Brewster angle for a Gaussian laser beam with TM polarization at the 1064-nm wavelength.

One dimensional photonic band gap material as an omnidirectional reflector

In this article, the reflection properties in one-dimensional dielectric-dielectric photonic band gap (PBG) structure have been studied. We have used SiO₂ as material of low refractive index and Te as a high refractive index material. Reflectivity of proposed PBG structure is plotted as a function of wavelength and angle of incidence and omni-directional PBGs are computed theoretically. To obtain reflectance, we used transfer matrix method for solving Maxwell’s equations for electromagnetic wave in PBG structures. For a large range of frequency, the PBG structure is found to exhibit omni-directional reflection which can be exploited in devices such as optical resonators, mirrors, etc.     

Design of single-material guided-mode resonance filter

In this letter, a guided-mode resonance （GMR） filter with the same material for both the grating layer and the waveguide layer is designed, and its optical properties are investigated. The GMR filter owns almost 100% reflection at the resonance wavelength of 800 nm with the full-width at half-maximum （FWHM） of 20 nm, and its sideband reflection from 700 to 1000 nm is less than 5%. As the resonance wavelength is influenced by more than one parameter during the fabrication process, GMR filter with the same resonance wavelength can be obtained by adjusting other parameters or even one parameter to deviate from the design value.

High spectral resolution analysis of tunable narrowband resonant grating waveguide structures

A high spectral resolution analysis of narrowband reflection filters based on resonant grating waveguide structures is presented. A tunable high-performance dye laser with ∼ 0.15 cm^-1 line width and a beam analyzing system consisting of three simultaneously controlled CCD cameras were used to investigate grating waveguide resonances at wavelengths in the 694 nm and 633 nm ranges. A reflectivity of ∼ 91% and a line width of ∼ 0.55 nm were measured and theoretically modeled for a resonant reflection filter specifically designed for the ruby laser wavelength 694.2 nm. For a second grating waveguide structure, designed for the helium-neon laser emission wavelength 632.8 nm, we observed a thermal shift of its spectral resonance position of several nanometers, when increasing the sample temperature by some degrees. An inverse thermal shift was observed when the structure was subsequently cooled down to room temperature. Our results suggest implementation of grating waveguide devices combining a narrow line width with a tunability of the resonant response into innovative concepts for reflection filter and sensor applications.

Design and analysis of a vertical directional coupler between a three-dimensional plasmonic slot waveguide and a silicon waveguide

The design of a vertical directional coupler between a three-dimensional plasmonic slot waveguide and a silicon waveguide is theoretically investigated in detail. It consists of two steps: the design of isolated plasmonic slot waveguide and silicon waveguide and the determination of the gap between the two waveguides and the length of a coupling region. The designed structure transfers 70.8% of the power carried by the silicon waveguide mode to the plasmonic slot waveguide mode when the gap is 150 nm and the coupling length is 2.14 μm. The wavelength dependence of our vertical directional coupler is also studied. The analysis shows that the amount of the transferred power changes slightly over a very wide wavelength range between 1.40 μm and 1.61 μm. Moreover, if we employ the fabrication technology for silicon photonics, it is quite tolerant to the variation of the length of its coupling section. Finally, the vertical directional coupler is considered for a polarizer.

Measurement of glycerol concentration in B–H–G solution using 3D photonic crystal structure

A novel technique is used to measure the concentration of glycerol in blood-hemoglobin-glycerol (B–H–G) solution using 3D photonic crystal structure is presented in this paper. Glycerol concentration is estimated accurately by measuring the intensities of transmitted light. Here, reflection as well as absorption losses is considered to measure the transmitted intensity of light having wavelength 540 nm. The principle of measurement is based on the linear variation of photonic band gap with respect to glycerol concentration. Simulations for photonic band gap are made using plane wave expansion (PWE) method. An experimental set up is theoretically designed to measure the concentration of glycerol at different hemoglobin concentration.     

Transfer of microwave radiation in sliding mode plasma waveguides

A new regime of the sliding propagation of microwave radiation in plasma waveguides in atmospheric air has been investigated experimentally and theoretically. A plasma waveguide whose radius is much larger than the radiation wavelength has been created by the photoionization of an easily ionized impurity by the ultraviolet radiation of a KrF laser. The transfer of a 35.3-GHz microwave signal to a distance of 60 m has been demonstrated. The transfer mechanism is due to the total internal reflection of the wave on the optically less dense walls of the plasma waveguide.
