本文研究了硅柱在MnFe₂O₄磁性液体背景中排列成六边形结构的二维光子晶体的可调谐负折射特性. 利用平面波展开法和时域有限差分法理论研究了硅柱-磁性液体体系二维光子晶体的带隙结构、等频曲线和负折射现象随外磁场强度的变化关系. 模拟结果表明, 硅柱-磁性液体体系二维光子晶体工作在TE模式时, 其负折射特性可由外磁场调节. 在固定背景溶液的磁性颗粒体积分数和入射光频率时, 所研究的折射光束的偏转角和光子晶体的负折射率绝对值随外磁场的增大而增大, 而在固定背景溶液的磁性颗粒体积分数和外磁场强度时, 负折射角和负折射率的绝对值随入射光归一化频率增大而减小. 固定外场强度和入射光频率时, 所研究结构的负折射特性随背景溶液的磁性颗粒体积分数增大而变弱.     

Morse势阱中线性和三阶非线性光折射率的改变

利用量子力学中的密度矩阵算符理论和迭代方法,导出莫尔斯（Morse）势阱中线性和三阶非线性光折射率改变的解析表达式,并以典型的GaAs／AlGaAs Morse势阱为例进行数值计算。数值结果表明,随着入射光强度增强,总的折射率改变将减少;随着势阱参数a的增大,总的折射率改变将减小;而随着载流子浓度的增加,总的折射率改变将增加。结果表明要获得较大的折射率改变,则需选取较小的入射光强度,较小的参数a,较大的载流子浓度,从而为实验研究提供理论依据。     

Analysis of Internal Conical Refraction Using Ray Tracing Formulas for the Biaxial Crystal

Internal or external conical refractions are strange optical phenomena appearing in biaxial crystal. In this paper the analysis of internal conical refraction is derived using the ray tracing formulas for the biaxial crystals, after explaining the theory of the ray tracing for the biaxial or uniaxial crystals. The double rings of conical refraction are also investigated; these are affected by the polarization state or angular intensity distributions of the incident light beam causing conical refraction.

Giving birth to the refined unambiguous statement of Snell's law in ray optics

This paper reports on the ambiguity present in the long-running Snell's law of refraction of light, which is based on the traditional ambiguous definitions of the angles of incidence and refraction in ray optics. To get rid of the said ambiguity, the refined unambiguous definitions of angles of incidence and refraction reported earlier by the author have been employed to give birth to the refined unambiguous statement of Snell's law of refraction. The most interesting physical insights that resulted from the refined unambiguous statement of Snell's law are: (i) in case of refraction of light of a particular colour while passing from one optical medium to another, the ratio of the sine of the angle of incidence and the sine of the angle of refraction is approximately equal to the refractive index of the second optical medium with respect to the first optical medium and (ii) the refractive index of an optical medium ‘b’ with respect to another optical medium ‘a’ is approximately equal to the reciprocal of the refractive index of the optical medium ‘a’ with respect to the optical medium ‘b’, and vice versa. These results are entirely novel and different from those existing in the traditional literature of ray optics.

Effective refractive index for determining ray propagation in an absorbing dielectric particle

The ray-tracing technique can be employed to simulate the scattering of light by a dielectric particle whose characteristic dimension is much larger than the incident wavelength. When a scattering particle is absorptive, a localized electromagnetic wave refracted into the scatterer is inhomogeneous, which requires the use of an effective refractive index to determine the propagation direction of the refracted ray. The effective refractive index for the first-order reflection–refraction event (i.e., the case for the ray-transmission from air into a particle) has been previously derived by the authors. In this study, we further develop recurrence formulae for the effective refractive indices associated with higher-order reflection–refraction events when the ray-transmission is from a particle to air. It is shown from the new formulae that effective refractive indices in this case depend upon ray history. Numerical results indicate that the real and imaginary parts of the effective refractive index are larger and smaller, respectively, than the real and imaginary parts of the inherent complex refractive index of an absorbing particle. Furthermore, if the particle faces associated with two sequential internal reflections are parallel to each other, the corresponding effective refractive indices are the same.

Negative refraction in ferromagnetic materials under external magnetic field: a theoretical analysis

We present a detailed theoretical analysis on the possibilities and conditions for negative permeability and negative refraction occuring in the magnetic materials with both pronounced magnetic and dielectric responses to electromagnetic waves. The results indicate that the permeability is always positive for $\de=(2q+0.5)\pi$ ($\de$ is the initial phase difference of magnetic components $h_{x}$ and $h_{y }$ of incident electromagnetic wave, $q$ is integer), which means that it is difficult to realize negative refraction. However, for $\de=2q\pi, \de=(2q+1)\pi$, or $\de=(2q-0.5)\pi$, the negative permeability occurs at some range of free procession frequency, which means that the refraction can become negative under certain conditions. Further analysis reveals that for general positive permittivity there are various opportunities for realizing the negative refraction provided that some requirements are met. One concludes also that the refractive index for $\de=2q\pi$ case is similar to $\de=(2q+1)\pi$. The only difference between two cases of $\de=2q\pi$ and $\de=(2q+1)\pi$ is that the $x$-direction for $\de=2q\pi$ corresponds to the $y$-direction for $\de=(2q+1)\pi$, and the $y$-direction for $\de=2q\pi$ corresponds to the $x$-direction for $\de=(2q+1)\pi$. The results are valuable for designing and analysing the complex negative refraction of magnetic materials.

利用可变光阑实现双轴晶体动态外锥折射

介绍了一种获得晶体动态外锥折射的方法.用全固态绿光激光器和双轴晶体kNbO_3,通过改变位于已消球差的双胶合透镜后表面处可变光阑的通光孔径,即改变入射光束的会聚角度,来实现入射光会聚角对外锥折射锥角的调制,由此得出双轴晶体kNbO_3外锥折射的锥角表达式.实验结果表明,周期性改变孔径光阑通光孔径的大小(入射光束的会聚角度)时,外锥折射锥角也同步地发生周期性的改变;外锥折射锥角等于入射于双轴晶体端面上的光线的会聚角.利用可变光阑可实现双轴晶体动态外锥折射并获得可控激光环,实验所测锥角角度与理论计算符合较好.     

单轴晶体中的负折射现象研究

分析了在各向同性介质和单轴晶体界面实现负折射的最佳条件。计算发现,通过调节光轴角和各向异性参量可以使得负折射现象更为明显,获得最佳光轴角和最大入射临界角。各向异性强的晶体实现负折射的入射角范围可能会很大。讨论了单轴晶体中和负折射率介质中的负折射现象的区别：负折射率介质中的负折射是由负的折射率引起的,单轴晶体中是由于各向异性决定的。同时还发现单轴晶体中的能流负折射现象不能实现Pendry在理论上所预言的完美透镜。     

光学马格努斯效应中的横向角移分析

从平面角谱理论出发,建立了光束在空气和玻璃界面折射的传输模型.基于这一模型,揭示了光学马格努斯效应中的横向角移现象.对于特定的线偏振和椭圆偏振光束,其折射场重心出现了横向角移,而当入射光束为圆偏振时,横向角移则会消失.在正负折射率界面,光束的横向角移产生了反转现象,这是由于光束在左手材料中发生了负衍射.超高折射率可明显地减少横向角移,而超低折射率则可显著地增强横向角移.这些发现将为如何调控和增强光学马格努斯效应提供理论依据. 关键词： 光学马格努斯效应 横向角移 圆偏振

Control the polarization state of light with symmetry-broken metallic metastructures

Controlling the polarization state, the transmission direction, the amplitude and the phase of light in a very limited space is essential for the development of on-chip photonics. Over the past decades, numerous sub-wavelength metallic microstructures have been proposed and fabricated to fulfill these demands. In this article, we review our efforts in achieving negative refractive index, controlling the polarization state, and tuning the amplitude of light with two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) microstructures. We designed an assembly of stacked metallic U-shaped resonators that allow achieving negative refraction for pure magnetic and electric responses respectively at the same frequency by selecting the polarization of incident light. Based on this, we tune the permittivity and permeability of the structure, and achieve negative refractive index. Further, by control the excitation and radiation of surface electric current on a number of 2D and 3D asymmetric metallic metastructures, we are able to control the polarization state of light. It is also demonstrated that with a stereostructured metal film, the whole metal surfaces can be used to construct either polarization-sensitive or polarization-insensitive prefect absorbers, with the advantage of efficient heat dissipation and electric conductivity. Our practice shows that metamaterials, including metasurface, indeed help to master light in nanoscale, and are promising in the development of new generation of photonics.

延迟线位置偏差对太赫兹时域光谱系统的测量不确定度影响分析

太赫兹时域光谱技术可以快速准确地提取材料在太赫兹波段的光学常数。然而,其各组成部分在控制精度、响应误差、系统噪音以及实验操作、数据处理等方面的误差,将影响系统对材料光学常数提取的准确性。基于透射式太赫兹时域光谱系统的测量原理,分析了系统延迟线位置偏差对提取材料复折射率准确度的影响,建立了误差在样品测量过程中的传递模型,并利用MATLAB仿真了误差对提取样品复折射率影响。结果表明,样品折射率和消光系数的不确定度受到了系统延迟线位置偏差的影响,且系统延迟线位置偏差越大,样品的复折射率提取的不确定度也就越大。同时,相比消光系数,延迟线位置的偏差对样品折射率的不确定度具有更大的影响。该模型具有一定的实际意义和理论参考价值,可分析系统延迟线位置偏差对太赫兹时域光谱系统提取材料光学常数不确定度的影响,为优化太赫兹时域光谱系统提供理论指导。
