Studying Focusing Properties of Graded Index Photonic Crystals Made of Material with Different Refractive Index
In this paper we investigate focusing properties of graded index (GRIN) photonic crystal (PC) structures which are composed of different materials with different refractive indices. GRIN PC structure is constructed from air holes in dielectric background. The holes radii are varied in the normal direction to the propagation in such a way that a parabolic effective refractive index is produced. ...
متن کاملNear - zero refractive index photonics
The control and manipulation of light on the nanoscale — the primary aim of nanophotonics — is of fundamental scientific interest and plays a key role in telecommunication technologies and energy management. Yet, because light–matter interactions are usually weak and hard to confine, they often need to be assisted by the use of suitably designed macroscopic media. For instance, the use of caref...
متن کاملMicrostrip Antenna Gain Enhancement using Near Zero Refractive Index Metamaterials
Some useful features of microstrip patch antennas are low profile, low weight and easy fabrication. However this type of antenna suffers from having a low gain, caused by propagation surface waves. In this paper, a new near zero refractive index metamaterial (MTM) unit cell is designed and fabricated as a superstrate over a Rectangular Microstrip Patch Antennas (RMPA). In order to obtain a maxi...
متن کاملBroadband, Volumetric Negative-Refractive-Index Media
Broadband, Volumetric Negative-Refractive-Index Media by Scott M. Rudolph Chair: Anthony Grbic Since their invention, negative-refractive-index (NRI) media have been plagued by three primary limitations: narrow bandwidth, high loss and polarization dependence. In this thesis, each of these problems is addressed. First, a new metamaterial topology that achieves negative permeability over a broad...
متن کاملBroadband spectral generation with refractive index control
We describe a method for generating a wide spectrum and at the same time improving propagation through a model inhomogeneous gaseous medium. The method is based on using a small two-photon detuning from a Raman resonance to adiabatically establish an appropriate molecular superposition state. This state, in turn, generates a broad spectrum of sidebands whose refractive index, Rayleigh scatter, ...
