Wave structure analysis of guided waves in a bar with an arbitrary cross-section

Both dispersion curves and wave structures, which are displacement distributions on a bar cross-section, are essential for guided wave NDEs. Theoretical dispersion curves and wave structures for a bar with an arbitrary cross-section are derived in this paper using a special modeling technique called the semi-analytical finite element method (SAFEM). The guidelines for guided wave NDEs of bar-like structures are also shown based on wave structure and modal analysis. First, the relationship between the dispersion curves and their corresponding wave structures were obtained for a square rod. Modes with longitudinal vibration have higher group velocities and torsional modes have constant phase and group velocities. Next, the relationship between the dispersion curves and wave structures for a rail are detailed. The rail is used to represent a bar with a complex cross-section. Similar to the square rod results, the rail's longitudinal modes have higher group velocities. However, the rail contains modes with local vibration. Finally, single mode detection and excitation techniques are introduced. A single mode can be obtained by detecting and exciting with a weighted function that corresponds to a specific mode's wave structure.

Propagation characteristics of guided waves in a rod surrounded by an infinite solid medium

The dispersion and excitation characteristics of the guided waves in a rod surrounded by an infinite solid medium (cladding) are investigated. First, the bisection technique is employed to find all the roots of the dispersion function on the basis of theoretical analysis and to obtain the complex phase and group velocity dispersion curves of the guided modes. Second, according to their different dispersion characteristics, the guided modes are divided into two categories: normal modes and Stoneley modes. And it is concluded that the normal modes merely exist in the “hard cladding” model in which the cladding’s shear velocity is larger than the rod’s; while the Stoneley modes in cylindrical interface are highly dispersive and merely exist in the model whose acoustical parameters satisfied the existence condition of the Stoneley waves. Third, the seldom discussed issue, the excitation mechanisms of the guided waves, excited by three source models: symmetric point source, axial and radial force sources, are simulated respectively. Attention is paid on the dominant mode which has better excitation sensitivity and the suitable excitation frequency range. Moreover, the propagation characteristics of the Stoneley modes, ignored in previous references, are analyzed and compared with those of the normal modes.

Transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM) X-ray guided modes in a two-layer crystalline heterostructure: A comparison

Polarization effects upon Bragg-case hard X-ray dynamical diffraction in a two-layer crystalline heterostructure waveguide have been investigated with the help of numerical modeling. A difference is shown to exist in both intensities and excitation conditions between TE (transverse electric) and TM (transverse magnetic) X-ray guided modes that are inherent to the waveguide. A comparison of σ- and π-polarized X-ray reflectivity curves from such a waveguide is performed. Possibilities for the experimental excitation of the TE and TM X-ray guided modes are discussed.     

Linear and nonlinear coupling properties of a novel multicore circular dielectric waveguide

In this work we investigate the linear and nonlinear coupling properties of a novel multicore circular dielectric waveguide. The proposed device consists of a circular central core and many circular sectoral cores at the periphery, while the whole structure can be considered as a nonlinear multicore composite optical coupler. Hybrid guided modes in a circular sectoral dielectric waveguide are derived using circular harmonic expansion for the electromagnetic fields and the Point Matching Method (PMM) for the application of boundary conditions. Several cases are investigated varying some of the parameters of the geometry and the optical frequency in order to produce dispersion diagrams. In advance, the electric and magnetic field distributions for the fundamental guided modes are produced, while linear and nonlinear coupling coefficients as well as the sectoral waveguide mode effective area are derived.     

Modes splitting in graphene-based double-barrier waveguides

The graphene-based double-barrier waveguides induced by electric field have been investigated. The guided modes can only exist in the case of Klein tunneling, and the fundamental mode is absent. The guided modes in the single-barrier waveguide split into symmetric and antisymmetric modes with different incident angles in the double-barrier waveguide.The phase difference between electron states and hole states is also discussed. The phase difference for the two splitting modes is close to each other and increases with the order of guided modes. These phenomena can be helpful for the potential applications in graphene-based optoelectronic devices.

Bisection algorithm to calculate hybrid modes of birefringent planar graded index waveguides

Guided modes of a planar dielectric waveguide which encounter a nondiagonal permittivity tensor are neither TE nor TM, but hybrid. They are described by a pair of coupled second-order differential equations for the transversal electric and magnetic field components. We construct a real-valued function which plays the role of the transversal electric or magnetic field in the uncoupled Sturm-Liouville differential equation for TE or TM modes. The number of zeroes, or nodes, of this function labels the modes. The nodes increase with the prospective propagation constant. This fact is proven by constructing suitable self-adjoint operators and referring to the minimax principle. The nodal properties allow to formulate an efficient bisection algorithm for effective indices and field distributions of guided hybrid modes.     

被孔隙介质约束的弹性杆中的导波*

为了研究导波在被孔隙介质约束的弹性杆结构中的传播规律,分析孔隙参数对导波传播特性的影响,本文建立了无限大孔隙介质包裹圆柱体的理论模型,利用孔隙介质弹性波动理论,分析了导波的频散曲线,以及圆柱半径和孔隙参数对于导波传播特性的影响。结果表明,在该结构中传播的纵向导波存在频散特性。内部圆柱半径的改变影响波导结构,从而影响导波传播。外部孔隙介质的渗透率对于导波频散的影响较小,孔隙度的改变影响孔隙介质体波波速,从而影响导波频散曲线的截止频率。同时,导波存在较小的衰减,且衰减随孔隙度增大而增大。这些结果对于后续开展无限大介质包裹弹性杆结构的超声无损评价提供了一定的理论参考。     

Guided Waves in a Multi-Layered Cylindrical Elastic Solid Medium

We investigate the guided waves in a multi-layered cylindrical elastic solid medium. The dispersion function of guided waves is usually complex and the dispersion curves of all modes are not conveniently obtained. Here we present an effective method to obtain the dispersion curves of all modes. First, the dispersion function of the guided waves is transformed into a real function. The dispersion curves are then calculated for all the modes of the guided waves by the bisection method. The modes with the orders n = 0, 1, and 2 are analysed in two- and three-layer media. The existence condition of Stoneley wave is discussed. The modes of the guided waves are also investigated in a two-layer medium, in which the velocity of shear wave in the outer layer is less than that in the inner layer.

Guided modes in a rectangular waveguide filled with single-negative materials

Based on classical electromagnetic theory, characteristics of guided modes in a rectangular waveguide filled with a pair of single-negative layers are studied. The results show that only surface waves of TE mode can propagate in this peculiar waveguide, no TM mode in any forms can propagate in it. In addition, TE waveguide modes will be affected by permeability ratio μ₁/μ₂ and dielectric layer thickness ratio P. Finally, from the electric field distribution of TE mode, we find the amplitude and location of the electric field can be adjusted by changing the thickness ratio P.     

Symmetric electromagnetic waves in a dielectric coaxial line

On the basis of a solution of the Maxwell equations the configuration of electromagnetic fields of symmetric types of oscillations in a dielectric coaxial line is found. The expressions for power density for both symmetric and hybrid waves are obtained. The direction of power density coincides with the axis of various axial symmetric dielectric structures. The dependences of phase speeds of electric and magnetic waves on frequencies of radiation are presented. The frequency range in which only the lowest index symmetric waves propagate is found. At frequencies higher than critical, discrete symmetric modes of oscillation exist. The energy is transmitted mainly inside the dielectric rod, and the power density at the axis is equal to zero.     

Compact-2D FDTD for waveguides including materials with negative dielectric permittivity, magnetic permeability and refractive index

An efficient compact-2D finite-difference time-domain method is presented for the numerical analysis of guided modes in waveguides that may include negative dielectric permittivity, negative magnetic permeability and negative refractive index materials. Both complex variable and real variable methods are given. The method is demonstrated for the analysis of channel-plasmon-polariton guided modes in triangular groves on a metal surface. The presented method can be used for a range of waveguide problems that were previously unsolvable analytically, due to complex geometries, or numerically, due to computational requirements of conventional three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain methods. A three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain algorithm that also allows analysis in the presence of bound or free electric and equivalent magnetic charges is presented and an example negative refraction demonstrates the method.     

Analysis of surface and guided wave plasmon polariton modes in insulator–metal–insulator planar plasmonic waveguides

Theoretical and experimental study of the surface plasmon–polariton and guided wave plasmon polariton modes is presented for the Sapphire/Ag/Polycarbonate/Air structure. Theoretical results are obtained by solving complex multilayer eigenvalue equations as well as the reflectivity equation for this structure. It is proposed that the mode attenuation can be significantly reduced by inserting a low index dielectric buffer between the metal and the guiding dielectric layer. The dispersion and attenuation curves are generated. Both the surface plasmon and guided wave plasmon polariton modes are studied experimentally. The experimental values of the effective refractive indices agree well with the theoretical values. The electric field profiles are generated and used to examine the nature of modes. After optimization of various parameters the condition for low loss single mode guiding is obtained for the proposed structure. Effect of metal thickness on surface plasmon mode is also discussed. It is inferred that in a properly optimized plasmonic waveguide, the losses can be reduced by a factor of 4.
