Chirped gratings in integrated optics [PDF]
Gratings with variable periods (chirped gratings) have been fabricated by recording the interference pattern of a collimated laser beam with a converging beam generated by a cylindrical lens.

Bound states in the continuum (BIC) accompanied by avoided crossings in leaky-mode photonic lattices
When two nonorthogonal resonances are coupled to the same radiation channel, avoided crossing arises and a bound state in the continuum (BIC) appears with appropriate conditions in parametric space. This paper presents numerical and analytical results on
