光子晶体波导耦合的波分复用研究

两平行光子晶体单模波导的相互耦合组成一个耦合结构。两本征模的色散曲线相交并出现简并,简并模之间的耦合作用使模式的分布发生了改变。由于耦合的作用,各个波长的光波会在不同的波导中传输。在简并点处两本征模发生解耦合,光波会沿着原来的方向传输。将两个不同耦合长度的光子晶体波导耦合结构集成在一起,就可以组成一个三波长的光子晶体波分复用器。

Numerical characterization of nanopillar photonic crystal waveguides and directional couplers

We numerically characterize a novel type of a photonic crystal waveguide, which consists of several rows of periodically arranged dielectric cylinders. In such a nanopillar photonic crystal waveguide, light confinement is due to the total internal reflection. A nanopillar waveguide is a multimode waveguide, where the number of modes is equal to the number of rows building the waveguide. The strong coupling between individual waveguides leads to the proposal of an ultrashort directional coupler based on nanopillar waveguides. We present a systematic analysis of the dispersion and transmission efficiency of nanopillar photonic crystal waveguides and directional couplers. Plane wave expansion and finite difference time domain methods were used to characterize numerically nanopillar photonic crystal structures both in two- and three-dimensional spaces.

A compact in-plane photonic crystal channel drop filter

This paper presents a novel in-plane photonic crystal channel drop filter.The device is composed of a resonant cavity sandwiched by two parallel waveguides.The cavity has two resonant modes with opposite symmetries.Tuning these two modes into degeneracy causes destructive interference in bus waveguide,which results in high forward drop efficiency at the resonant wavelength.From the result of numerical analysis by using two-dimensional finite-difference time-domain method,the channel drop filter has a drop efficiency of 96% and a Q value of over 3000,which can be used in dense wavelength division multiplexing systems.

 用扩展为可分析腔内高次模的传输线方法研究了有孔双层屏蔽腔体的屏蔽效能,该方法可以考虑腔内较宽的频带范围。计算了双层屏蔽腔内电场的屏蔽系数,与单层屏蔽腔内屏蔽系数的比较表明,采用双层屏蔽使得腔体的屏蔽效能大为提高。分析了双层屏蔽腔体孔缝耦合的共振效应、腔内的谐振。结果表明：满足共振效应成立条件时双层屏蔽腔内也发生共振现象,屏蔽效能在共振频率附近明显降低;在腔内的谐振点屏蔽系数出现极小值,此时屏蔽效果较差;在0.1~4.5 GHz的范围内,屏蔽系数随着频率的增加总体上呈下降趋势。     

高功率微波对双层屏蔽腔体的孔缝耦合特性

 用多模传输线模型对高功率微波与双层屏蔽腔体的孔缝耦合特性进行了研究,此方法可以考虑高功率微波孔缝耦合进入腔内时的较宽的频率范围。用这种模拟方法获得了双层屏蔽腔体微波耦合的一些规律性结果：双层屏蔽可以使得腔体内的耦合电场比单层屏蔽时有显著的减弱,这与FDTD方法的结论是一致的;双层屏蔽外腔体中的一些谐振会影响到内腔体的耦合系数,外腔体中的场模式经由内孔缝会影响内腔体中的场模式;不论是单层屏蔽还是双层屏蔽,保持每层孔缝总面积不变时,随着孔阵中孔缝数量的增加,进入腔体内的耦合电场也逐步地减弱,这与单层屏蔽时的结论一致;通风总面积不变的情况下,孔缝数量越多,屏蔽效能越好。     

Selective excitation of high-order modes in circular waveguides

The excitation of very high-order modes in circular waveguides has been performed in a cavity with a connected up-taper with a geometry similar to those used in gyrotrons. A Gaussian beam was coupled to the cavity which was made translucent by an array of holes. With the help of a special optics, the amplitude as well as the phase distribution of the beam was matched to the mode to be excited in the resonant cavity. By simple rotation of one mirror to adjust the phase distribution together with the change of frequency to match the resonance condition, a large number of modes could be produced with one experimental set-up. Field measurements in the output waveguide show a high mode purity of the radiation and confirm the calculations. The method can be used for cold tests of electrodynamic systems operating with these modes, e.g. quasi-optical converters for gyrotrons.

Radiation properties of ICRF waveguide couplers

The radiation spectra of a dielectric-filled waveguide (DWG) and a folded waveguide (FWG) antenna in the ion cyclotron range of frequencies are evaluated for tokamaks with the waveguide codes, which model the coupling of the waveguide modes to the plasma waves with outward radiating boundary conditions. The codes provide a self-consistent calculation of the fields across the waveguide apertures for various antenna phasings taking into account a complete set of waveguide eigenmodes including the reflected modes and, in the case of DWG, an arbitrary orientation of the antenna to the plasma magnetic field. In the studied cases, the spectra are found to be well described by a model which is based on a simplified wave field pattern determined by the antenna aperture geometry. Comparison to the corresponding loop antenna is carried out     

Resonant cavity based antireflection structures for surface plasmon waveguides

The concept of antireflection coating in the theory of multilayer films is introduced to the two-dimensional metal–insulator–metal (MIM) structures to realize total transmission of optical energy at the waveguide discontinuities. The antireflection structure consists of a resonant cavity which is constructed by changing the insulator width of the waveguide. A numerical method is used to achieve the optimal design directly. A T-splitter with zero reflection is proposed, utilizing a cavity structure in the input waveguide. A transformer with enhanced transmission between different waveguides is presented for further validating the efficiency and generality of these cavity based antireflection structures. The simulation results show that such a structure can realize a perfect antireflection function.

Athermal waveguides for optical communication wavelengths

We report on the design, fabrication, and characterization of temperature insensitive strip silicon-on-insulator racetrack resonators. The influence of various parameters, such as waveguide width, waveguide height, ring radius, coupling length, ring gap, and operating wavelength, on temperature-dependent wavelength shift is examined. A resonant wavelength shift of 0.2 pm/K at a 1550 nm wavelength is measured for 335 nm × 220 nm waveguides. A significant reduction of waveguide propagation losses, improved ring Q value, and higher extinction ratio are obtained after overlaying the silicon waveguides with a polymer cladding.     

A linear-operator formalism for bianisotropic waveguides

A bianisotropic waveguide can be defined as a cylindrical waveguide filled with bianisotropic materials, and all the conventional waveguides are special cases of the bianisotropic waveguide. In this paper, guided wave propagation in bianisotropic waveguide is analyzed by the theory of linear operators, and two types of adjoint waveguides and inner products are introduced respectively. Based on the concept of adjoint waveguides, the functional expressions of the field equations can be obtained, and from which the eigenvalue problem of the bianisotropic waveguide can be solved. Also, bi-orthogonality relations of guided modes are derived. These biorthogonality relations reported here can be used to expand electromagnetic fields in terms of a complete set of modes in straight bianisotropic waveguide. As an example of application, mode matching formulae for a discontinuity problem are given.     

Surface plasmon resonance and field confinement in graphene nanoribbons in a nanocavity

In this work, we demonstrate surface plasmon resonance properties and field confinement under a strong interaction between a waveguide and graphene nanoribbons (GNRs), obtained by coupling with a nanocavity. The optical transmission of a waveguide–cavity–graphene structure is investigated by finite-difference time-domain simulations and coupled-mode theory. The resonant frequency and intensity of the GNR resonant modes can be precisely controlled by tuning the Fermi energy and carrier mobility of the graphene, respectively. Moreover, the refractive index of the cavity core, the susceptibility χ⁽³⁾ and the intensity of incident light have little effect on the GNR resonant modes, but have good tunability to the cavity resonant mode. The cavity length also has good tunability to the resonant mode of cavity. A strong interaction between the GNR resonant modes and the cavity resonant mode appears at a cavity length of L₁ = 350 nm. We also demonstrate the slow-light effect of this waveguide–cavity–graphene structure and an optical bistability effect in the plasmonic cavity mode by changing the intensity of the incident light. This waveguide–cavity–graphene structure can potentially be utilised to enhance optical confinement in graphene nano-integrated circuits for optical processing applications.
