In-situ EXAFS study on the thermal decomposition of TiH2

Thermal decomposition behaviors of TiH₂ powder under a owing helium atmosphere and in a low vac- uum condition have been studied using an in situ EXAFS technique. By an EXAFS analysis containing the multiple scattering paths including H atoms, the changes of the hydrogen stoichiometric ratio and the phase transformation sequence are obtained. The results demonstrate that the initial decomposition temperature is dependent on experi- mental conditions, which occurs, respectively, at about 300 and 400℃ in a low vacuum condition and under a owing helium atmosphere. During the decomposition process of TiH₂ in a low vacuum condition, the sample experiences a phase change process:δ(TiH₂)→δ (TiH_x)→δ(TiH_x)+β(TiH_x)→δ(TiH_x)+β(TiH_x)+α(Ti)→β(TiH_x)+α(Ti)→α(Ti)+β(Ti). This study o ers a way to detect the structural information of hydrogen. A detailed discussion about the decomposition process of TiH₂ is given in this paper.

Design of tunable asymmetric directional coupler filter using periodically segmented Ti:LiNbO3 waveguides

A tunable wavelength filter is designed using Ti:LiNbO₃ asymmetric directional coupler. One arm of the directional coupler is made of continuous waveguide while the other arm is periodic segmented. This segmentation reduces the lithographic steps and hence the fabrication cost required for such asymmetric coupler based filter. The propagation constant of periodical segmented and continuous waveguides are analysed using Effective-Index-based Matrix Method. The tunability is achieved using electro-optic property of LiNbO₃.     

Optimal designing of grating couplers for diffused waveguides in electro-optical crystals

Grating couplers for electro-optical diffused waveguides (such as Ti:LiNbO₃, Ti:LiTaO₃, etc.) are examined theoretically. A comparison of the improvements resulting from groove deepening, grating metallization, covering and multicovering of waveguide corrugation is made. Expressions for the calculation of the optimum parameters for multicovering are given and the method for optimization of the parameters is presented. It is shown that high-efficiency couplers for diffused electro-optical waveguides can be made using corrugations no longer than 1 mm and no deeper than 10 nm. A numerical illustration is presented to demonstrate the usefulness of the method for the improvement of other grating devices (distributed Bragg reflector, thin-film grating coupler).     

Nanoplasmonic directional couplers and Mach–Zehnder interferometers

We present a novel design and analysis of two nano-scale plasmonic devices: a directional coupler and a Mach–Zehnder interferometer. The designs of the two devices are based on our recent work on the air-gap coupler that resulted in high coupling efficiency between a dielectric waveguide and a plasmonic waveguide. The two devices are embedded between two dielectric waveguides and operate at optical telecom wavelengths. The overall efficiency was 37% for a 2×2 directional coupler switch and above 50% for the proposed designs for a Mach–Zehnder Interferometer. The efficiency in the proposed devices can be increased using broader plasmonic waveguides.     

Chirp controllable all-optical router in a nonlinear directional coupler

We analyzed the evolution of chirped optical pulses in a nonlinear directional coupler by coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations. It is shown that an optical pulses launched into one channel can couple out from either of the two channels of the nonlinear directional coupler, with the routing determined by the chirp of the pulse. This is different from the previous routing mechanism of the nonlinear directional coupler where routing is determined by the peak power of the pulse. Based on the chirp-dependent feature, all-optical router and switch could be implemented by the pulse chirp modulation.     

双光子吸收对光子晶体定向耦合全光开关的影响

 利用时域有限差分方法,在非线性条件下,考虑双光子吸收效应的同时,建立了分析2维光子晶体定向耦合波导光开关的模型。数值计算结果表明,对于长度较短的波导耦合器件,在强控制光和非线性条件下,双光子吸收效应会对波导的耦合作用产生一定的影响,从而改变入射光的透射特性,使光开关控制的动态过程发生变化。故而在设计全光开关器件时,对强控制光条件下的非线性双光子吸收效应有必要作为影响因素考虑进去。

Acoustooptic 2×2 switch for radiation with different wavelengths as an element of a fiber-optic gyroscope

Planar acoustooptic 2×2 directional couplers that switch optical rays with different wavelengths are considered. A method for calculating the angular and frequency characteristics of such switches is developed, and the parameters of a switch based on a planar Ti-LiNbO₃ structure are calculated. Experiments employing bulk acoustooptic diffraction in TeO₂ are performed, confirming the basic theoretical assumptions. It is shown experimentally that the best conditions for switching optical rays directed into optical fibers can be provided nearly always by varying the diffraction angles and the frequencies of the sound waves. The functional possibilities of the 2×2 directional coupler investigated in a fiber-optic gyroscope are described. Zh. Tekh. Fiz. 67, 57–62 (July 1997)
