Limitations to bit-rate and spatial capacity of an optical data transmission channel [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2002
The maximum bit-rate of a slab waveguide is ultimately determined by the waveguide dispersion. We show that while the maximum bit rate in a waveguide is inversely proportional to the waveguide's width, bit rate per unit width (i.e., spatial capacity) decreases, and in the limit of a zero-width waveguide it converges to a value, which is independent of ...

Optical Field Enhancement in Nanoscale Slot Waveguides of Hyperbolic Metamaterials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Nanoscale slot waveguides of hyperbolic metamaterials are proposed and demonstrated for achieving large optical field enhancement. The dependence of the enhanced electric field within the air slot on waveguide mode coupling and permittivity tensors of hyperbolic metamaterials is analyzed both numerically and analytically.

Double Helical Plasmonic Antennas

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Plasmonic double helical antennas funnel circularly polarized light to the nanoscale, offering strong chiroptical interaction and directional light emission. Extending a single helix design tool, this study combines numerical modeling with experimental validation, revealing large, broadband dissymmetry factors in the visible range.

Double-Track Waveguides inside Calcium Fluoride Crystals

open access: yesCrystals, 2020
Calcium Fluoride (CaF2) was selected owing to its cubic symmetry and excellent luminescence properties as a crystal of interest, and ultrafast laser inscription of in-bulk double-track waveguides was realized.

Exact equivalent-profile formulation for bent optical waveguides [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2006
A widespread, intuitive and computationally inexpensive method to analyze light guidance through waveguide bends is by introducing an equivalent straight waveguide with refractive index profile modified to account for actual waveguide bend. Here we revise the commonly used equivalent-index formula, ending up with its simple extension that enables ...

Trapped modes in finite quantum waveguides

open access: yes, 2011
The Laplace operator in infinite quantum waveguides (e.g., a bent strip or a twisted tube) often has a point-like eigenvalue below the essential spectrum that corresponds to a trapped eigenmode of finite L2 norm.

Optoelectronic Devices for In‐Sensor Computing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The raw data obtained directly from sensors in the noisy analogue domain is often unstructured, which lacks a predefined format or organization and does not conform to a specific data model. Optoelectronic devices for in‐sensor visual processing can integrate perception, memory, and processing functions in the same physical units, which can compress ...

Nonlinear theory of soliton-induced waveguides

open access: yes, 1998
We develop a nonlinear theory of soliton-induced waveguides that describes a finite-amplitude probe beam guided by a spatial dark soliton in a saturable nonlinear medium.

Multifunctional Neural Probes Enable Bidirectional Electrical, Optical, and Chemical Recording and Stimulation In Vivo

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Convergence drawing is used to create flexible, microscale, multifunctional fiber‐based neural probes. Optimized materials selection enables individual devices to perform neural recording, electrical stimulation, optogenetics, fiber photometry, fluid delivery, and voltammetric neurotransmitter detection in rodents.

Dissimilar directional couplers showing -symmetric-like behavior

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2017
Despite the benefits which the directional couplers based on parity-time symmetric systems may offer to the field of integrated optics, the realization of such couplers relies on rather strict design constraints on the waveguide parameters.
