Optimal plasmonic focusing on a metal disc under radially polarized terahertz illumination
Optimal focusing of surface plasmon polaritons in the center of a metal disc illuminated by radially polarized terahertz pulses is demonstrated. By matching the cylindrical symmetry of the metal structure with the radially polarized terahertz field, surface plasmons are excited along its entire circumference. Constructive interference in the disc center produces a sharp frequency-dependent foca...
متن کاملGeneration of radially-polarized terahertz pulses for coupling into coaxial waveguides
Coaxial waveguides exhibit no dispersion and therefore can serve as an ideal channel for transmission of broadband THz pulses. Implementation of THz coaxial waveguide systems however requires THz beams with radially-polarized distribution. We demonstrate the launching of THz pulses into coaxial waveguides using the effect of THz pulse generation at semiconductor surfaces. We find that the radia...
متن کاملAnalysis on Coupled Vibration of a Radially Polarized Piezoelectric Cylindrical Transducer
Coupled vibration of a radially polarized piezoelectric cylindrical transducer is analyzed with the mechanical coupling coefficient method. The method has been utilized to analyze the metal cylindrical transducer and the axially polarized piezoelectric cylindrical transducer. In this method, the mechanical coupling coefficient is introduced and defined as the stress ratio in different direction...
متن کاملEfficient radially polarized laser beam generation with a double interferometer.
Conversion of a linearly polarized CO(2) laser beam into a radially polarized beam is demonstrated with a novel double-interferometer system. The first Mach-Zehnder interferometer converts the linearly polarized input beam into two beams with sin(2) θ and cos(2) θ intensity profiles, where θ is the azimuthal angle. This is accomplished by using two spiral-phase-delay plates with opposite handed...
متن کاملGeneration of Radially Polarized Beams Using Optically Patterned Liquid Crystals
Radially polarizing liquid crystal (LC) devices aligned optically were investigated for applications in laser technology. Presently, radially polarized beams are generated through complex laser resonator configurations or buffing of LC alignment layers. Optically aligned LC devices offer several advantages over these methods, including their simple fabrication, low cost, high laser damage thres...
