Plasmonic Brewster angle: broadband extraordinary transmission through optical gratings

Extraordinary optical transmission through metallic gratings is a well established effect based on the collective resonance of corrugated screens. Being based on plasmonic resonances, its bandwidth is inherently narrow, in particular, for thick screens and narrow apertures. We introduce here a different mechanism to achieve total transmission through an otherwise opaque screen, based on an ultrabroadband tunneling that can span from dc to the visible range at a given incidence angle. This phenomenon effectively represents the equivalent of Brewster transmission for plasmonic and opaque screens.     

Microwave signal delay line based on multicore optical fiber

A fiber-optic delay line based on the successive transmission of a modulated optical signal through all seven cores of an optical fiber has been fabricated. The total loss of the signal after the transmission through all cores is less than 12 dB. The group delay in the range of modulation frequencies of 6 to 12GHz is found to be 5.62 μs for a fiber as short as 160 m.

An Approach for Security Enhancement of Certain Encryption Schemes Employing Error Correction Coding and Simulated Synchronization Errors

An approach for the cryptographic security enhancement of encryption is proposed and analyzed. The enhancement is based on the employment of a coding scheme and degradation of the ciphertext. From the perspective of the legitimate parties that share a secret key, the degradation appears as a transmission of the ciphertext through a binary erasure channel. On the other hand, from the perspective of an attacker the degradation appears as a transmission of the ciphertext over a binary deletion channel. Cryptographic security enhancement is analyzed based on the capacity of the related binary deletion channel. An illustrative implemementation framework is pointed out.     

Use of metallic and dielectric films for hollow fibers

The problem of transmission of CO₂ laser radiation through hollow fibers and waveguides was studied theoretically and confirmed experimentally.

This makes possible the investigation of the transmission of the CO₂ radiation through waveguides when the internal wall is covered with a metal or a metal- dielectric film. It was shown theoretically and proved experimentally that the transmission of the CO₂ radiation is possible even through bent waveguides.

Electron-spin polarization in a non-magnetic heterostructure

The spin dependent electron transmission through a non-magnetic III-V semiconductor symmetric well is studied theoretically so as to investigate the output transmission current polarization at zero magnetic field. Transparency of electron transmission is calculated as a function of electron energy as well as the well width, within the one electron band approximation along with the spin-orbit interaction. Enhanced spin-polarized resonant tunneling in the heterostructure due to Dresselhaus and Rashba spin-orbit coupling induced splitting of the resonant level is observed. We predict that a spin-polarized current spontaneously emerges in this heterostructure. This effect could be employed in the fabrication of spin filters, spin injectors and detectors based on non-magnetic semiconductors.

High-optical-throughput individual nanoscale aperture in a multilayered metallic film

The optical transmission of an individual subwavelength aperture in a multilayered metal film is shown to be enhanced compared with that of a homogeneous metal film. The enhancement effect is due to the light coupling to surface plasmon excitation facilitated by a film periodicity. The sensitivity of the transmission to the dielectric filling of the aperture is also shown. The latter effect can be used to switch and control the transmittance. Devices based on enhanced transmission through nanosized apertures can find applications in high-density optical and magneto-optical data storage, high-resolution microscopy, and photolithography, where nanoscale light sources with high-optical-power throughput are required, as well as in sensor applications.

Low frequency acoustic transmission through the walls of rectangular ducts

A simple theory is described for the transmission of low frequency sound through the walls of rectangular ducts, particularly those in air conditioning systems. The model is based on a coupled acoustic/structural wave system, and it is assumed that the duct radiates in the same way as a finite-length line source incorporating a single travelling wave. Measurements of wall transmission loss on two types of duct system are compared to theoretical predictions, and good agreement is obtained within the frequency range of validity of the theory. It is concluded that the present approach should give reliable estimates of noise transmission in practical situations.     

Temperature independent 80 Gb/s transmission system using spectral phase modulation-based TDC

A temperature independent 80-Gb/s 100-km transmission system is demonstrated with the use of spectral phase modulation-based tunable dispersion compensator (TDC). The principle of dispersion compensation based on spectral phase modulation as well as the relationship between spectral phase modulation function and group velocity dispersion (GVD) are theoretically studied. TDC based on spectral phase modulation is implemented. The performance of 80-Gb/s transmission system is experimentally evaluated. The nonlinear relationship between temperature and temperature-induced dispersion fluctuations is demonstrated through the asymmetric temperature-induced power penalty without dispersion compensation. With respect to the low temperature area, the temperature-induced dispersion fluctuations are smaller than those in the high temperature area. By using the proposed TDC, temperature independent 80-Gb/s transmission is successfully demonstrated under a temperature range of -20 - 60 ?C with a power penalty of less than 0.8 dB.     

Y junctions in photonic crystal channel waveguides: high transmission and impedance matching

We investigate the efficiency of transmission through photonic crystal Y junctions and show the importance of matching mode symmetries. Furthermore, we show that by adding tuning holes to the input waveguide it is possible to achieve almost perfect impedance matching, leading ideally to unitary transmission through the junction. The model system is based on a triangular photonic lattice of holes in dielectrics to reflect experimental reality.     

Controllable electromagnetic transmission based on metallic nanoslit with a microcavity

In this paper, we explore the electromagnetic transmission through a vertical metallic nanoslit with a horizontal microcavity. The introduction of microcavity gives rise to the changes of slit transmission spectrum in the number and amplitude of transmission peak and dip, owing to the electromagnetic coupling between slit and microcavity. The transmission through the slit with microcavity strongly depends on whether the isolated slit is in resonance or not, and the microcavity resonance is an additional factor that influences the transmission. The transmission spectrum can be adjusted by changing the opening position of slit, and the slit depth, the width and depth of microcavity. Our results are analysed and discussed from the view of Fano resonance. These results may be of value in tuning electromagnetic wave in subwavelength optics and designing plasmonic devices based on composite metallic nanoslit structures.

Near-field optical power transmission of dipole nano-antennas

Nano-antennas in functional plasmonic applications require high near-field optical power transmission. In this study, a model is developed to compute the near-field optical power transmission in the vicinity of a nano-antenna. To increase the near-field optical power transmission from a nano-antenna, a tightly focused beam of light is utilized to illuminate a metallic nano-antenna. The modeling and simulation of these structures is performed using 3-D finite element method based full-wave solutions of Maxwell’s equations. Using the optical power transmission model, the interaction of a focused beam of light with plasmonic nano-antennas is investigated. In addition, the tightly focused beam of light is passed through a band-pass filter to identify the effect of various regions of the angular spectrum to the near-field radiation of a dipole nano-antenna. An extensive parametric study is performed to quantify the effects of various parameters on the transmission efficiency of dipole nano-antennas, including length, thickness, width, and the composition of the antenna, as well as the wavelength and half-beam angle of incident light. An optimal dipole nano-antenna geometry is identified based on the parameter studies in this work. In addition, the results of this study show the interaction of the optimized dipole nano-antenna with a magnetic recording medium when it is illuminated with a focused beam of light.     

Technique for interaction of optical fields with turbulent medium containing particles

We develop a method for transmission of stochastic fields through turbulent media (atmosphere, ocean, biotissues) containing randomly distributed particles. The method is based on the angular spectrum representation of stochastic, statistically stationary, scalar fields, the Rytov perturbation series for propagation in weakly fluctuating media, and the first Born approximation for weak scattering from particulate media. The results for transmission of the deterministic (laser) field may be obtained from our general results as a limiting case.     

Generating particlelike scattering states in wave transport

We introduce a procedure to generate scattering states which display trajectorylike wave function patterns in wave transport through complex scatterers. These deterministic scattering states feature the dual property of being eigenstates to the Wigner-Smith time-delay matrix Q and to the transmission matrix t(?)t with classical (noiseless) transmission eigenvalues close to 0 or 1. Our procedure to create such beamlike states is based solely on the scattering matrix and successfully tested numerically for regular, chaotic, and disordered cavities. These results pave the way for the experimental realization of highly collimated wave fronts in transport through complex media with possible applications such as secure and low-power communication.

Transmission Fluctuation Spectrometry with Spatial Correlation

Transmission fluctuation spectrometry (TFS) is being developed as a new method of particle size analysis. In the early approaches, the particle suspension was illuminated by one beam with finite beam diameter and the transmission signals underwent a process with variable spatial and/or temporal averaging and a subsequent nonlinear operation. The transmission fluctuations were obtained as a spectrum which included the information on particle size distribution and particle concentration. A new approach presented here employs two narrow parallel beams. While changing the beam separation, the transmission fluctuations of these two beams are expressed in terms of the expectancy of the transmission product (ETP). The analytical expression of the ETP through a monolayer is derived and the ETP of a 3‐dimensional suspension is formulated based on the layer model. The deviation between the transition functions of 3‐dimensional suspensions and monolayers is found to be affected by effects from particle overlapping and monolayer structure.
