Random Matrix Theory Approach to Chaotic Coherent Perfect Absorbers.
We employ random matrix theory in order to investigate coherent perfect absorption (CPA) in lossy systems with complex internal dynamics. The loss strength γ_{CPA} and energy E_{CPA}, for which a CPA occurs, are expressed in terms of the eigenmodes of the isolated cavity-thus carrying over the information about the chaotic nature of the target-and their coupling to a finite number of scattering...
متن کاملPlasmonic nanoantennas as integrated coherent perfect absorbers on SOI waveguides for modulators and all-optical switches.
The performance of plasmonic nanoantenna structures on top of SOI wire waveguides as coherent perfect absorbers for modulators and all-optical switches is explored. The absorption, scattering, reflection and transmission spectra of gold and aluminum nanoantenna-loaded waveguides were calculated by means of 3D finite-difference time-domain simulations for single waves propagating along the waveg...
متن کاملDetecting unstable periodic orbits from transient chaotic time series
We address the detection of unstable periodic orbits from experimentally measured transient chaotic time series. In particular, we examine recurrence times of trajectories in the vector space reconstructed from an ensemble of such time series. Numerical experiments demonstrate that this strategy can yield periodic orbits of low periods even when noise is present. We analyze the probability of f...
متن کاملNoise properties of coherent perfect absorbers and critically coupled resonators
The performance of a coherent perfect absorber (time-reversed laser) is limited by quantum and thermal noise. At zero temperature, the quantum shot noise dominates the signal for frequencies close to the resonance frequency and both vanish exactly at the resonance frequency. We compute the sensitivity of the absorbing cavity as a background-free detector, limited by finite signal or detector ba...
متن کاملAcoustic Coherent Perfect Absorbers as Sensitive Null Detectors
We report the experimental realization of acoustic coherent perfect absorption (CPA) of four symmetric scatterers of very different structures. The only conditions necessary for these scatterers to exhibit CPA are that both the reflection and transmission amplitudes of the scatterers are 0.5 under one incident wave, and there are two collinear and counter-propagating incident waves with appropr...
