Finite Element Analysis of the Field Patterns of Higher-Order TE and TM Modes in Rectangular-Groove Guide

The field patterns of the different TE and TM modes in a rectangular-groove guide are analysed by finite element method. The electric field, magnetic field and energy distributions in the groove guide for the dominant TE mode, the lowest TM mode and the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd higher-order TE,TM modes are presented. The results show that the low-loss characteristic of rectangular-groove guide seems unreliable. The results in this paper will be of benefit for us to understand the transmission characteristics of rectangular-groove guide, and will be of practical significance in designing groove guide components.     

高功率微波弯曲圆波导设计

 报道了可分别传输TM₀₁模和TE₀₁模的两种弯曲圆波导的设计方法和计算结果。研究表明：所设计的TM01模弯曲波导和TE₀₁模弯曲波导在中心频率上传输效率均超过99.5%,传输效率大于95%的带宽分别达到20.0%和14.4%;该两个弯曲波导也分别适用于传输TE₁₁模和TM₁₁模;水平极化TE₁₁模与TM₀₁模、垂直极化TM₁₁模与TE₀₁模在弯曲圆波导中传输时具有相似的传输效率和频带特性;而垂直极化TE₁₁模、水平极化TM₁₁模由于不易和其它模式耦合,在弯曲波导中传输时具有较高的传输效率。     

TE, TM modes photorefractive surface waves and their coupling

The nonlinear equations of photorefractive surface waves (PR SWs) with diffusion mechanism are established and calculated numerically for both TE mode and TM mode and their coupling for the first time. The characteristics of TE mode and TM mode are analyzed, such as propagation constants, spatial distribution, penetration depths etc. For relative larger propagation constant, most of the surface wave energy is concentrated on the A_x component of TM mode, and the penetration depth of A_y of TE mode is always larger than that of A_x of TM mode because electro-optical coefficient r₁₃ is always smaller than r₃₃ in general PRC. As a result, the energy of the PR SW is better confined near the surface for TM mode than that for TE mode. When both TE and TM modes PR SWs are present, they will be coupled drastically and the A_x component of TM mode and A_y component of TE mode resonate in the volume of PR medium. As a result, the PR SWs cannot remain decay, and the light energy can not be confined near the surface steadily and the modes are destroyed. The results provide the theoretical instructions and are very significant to generate steady and high density PR SW in practice.

Optimized overmoded TE01-to-TM11 mode converters for high-power millimeter wave applications at 70 and 140 GHz

Mode coupling in bent, oversized, smooth-wall circular waveguides was studied by means of numerical integration of coupled-mode differential equations in order to optimize high-power TE01-to-TM11 mode transducers at 70 GHz and 140 GHz. Such mode transformers are used in the mode conversion sequence TEOn to TE01 to TM11 to HE11 for generating the almost perfectly linearly polarized Gaussian-like HE11 mode from circular electric TEOn gyrotron modes. This quasi-optical HE11 hybrid mode is in many respects ideal for electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) of magnetically confined plasmas in thermonuclear fusion research and for other technical applications. Curvature and ellipticity coupling as well as ohmic attenuation of 6 coupled modes (TE01, TM11, TE11, TE12, TE21, TM21) are included in the coupling matrices. Integral expressions were used for deriving the coupling coefficients for arbitrary modes in bent, smooth-wall waveguide. Lowest level of unwanted spurious modes together with highest transmission efficiency (shortest arc length) is achieved with sinusoidal curvature distribution instaed of constant curvature. The calculated conversion efficiencies of 98.0% at 70 GHz and 95.2% at 140 GHz (interior waveguide diameter D=27.8 mm for 200 kW transmission lines) are in excellent agreement with the measured values of (97.6±0.4)% and (95±1)%, respectively.     

Design and studies on the traveling wave transverse RF deflecting structure

With the development of free electron laser (FEL) and the international linear collider (ILC), the electron bunch length is getting smaller and smaller. The traveling-wave transverse RF deflecting structure is an important part of the RF deflecting method for bunch length measurement and phase space diagnostics.The operation mode in RF deflector is the "TM11-like" mode. Since the TM11-like mode in this structure has a pair of degenerate dipole modes, two additional holes are provided on either side of each iris to stabilize the mode. The simulation and optimization have been done. A prototype has been fabricated and tested. The cold test results have been compared with the simulations of the first three modes.

Effects of shape of terminus on excitation of surface plasmon modes on metal nanowires

The effects of the shape of a nanowire terminus on the excited surface plasmon polariton （SPP） modes are investigated. The conical terminus and terminus cut at a certain angle are studied. For the first time, the quantitative mode decompositions are carried out to derive the full information about excited SPP modes. It is demonstrated that tuning the shape of the terminus provides an effective method to control the composition of excited SPP modes on metal nanowires. It is especially found that some important patterns, such as the pure TM0 mode and the superposition of TM0 and HE＋1 or HE-1 modes, can be generated by some specific shapes of the terminus, whereas there is no way to produce these patterns using flat-end nanowires.

Wide-range optical sensors based on a single ring resonator are investigated theoretically and experimentally.The sensor worked at the TE and TM modes simultaneously.

The experimental results showed that the measurement range for the TE mode was almost three times larger than that of the TM mode. A sensitivity of 233 nm/RIU was achieved for the wavelength interrogation of the TM mode.
