Nonlinear localized modes in waveguide bends
Being inspired by the recent studies of photonic crystal waveguides and circuits, we analyze nonlinear stationary modes localized in waveguide bends, in the framework of the discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation for a planar geometry. We introduce a simple model of a waveguide bend and examine the interplay between discreteness, nonlinearity and geometry for the existence and stability of non...
متن کاملAir Trenches for Sharp Silica Waveguide Bends
Air trench structures for reduced-size bends in lowindex contrast waveguides are proposed. To minimize junction loss, the structures are designed to provide adiabatic mode shaping between lowand high-index contrast regions, which is achieved by the introduction of “cladding tapers.” Drastic reduction in effective bend radius is predicted. We present two-dimensional (2-D) finite-difference time-...
متن کاملAdaptive waveguide bends with homogeneous, nonmagnetic, and isotropic materials.
We propose a method for adaptive waveguide bends using homogeneous, nonmagnetic, and isotropic materials, which simplifies the parameters of the bends to the utmost extent. The proposed bend has an adaptive and compact shape because of all the flat boundaries. The nonmagnetic property is realized by selecting OB'/OC = 0.5. Only two nonmagnetic isotropic dielectrics are needed throughout, and th...
متن کاملMetamaterial Waveguide Devices for Integrated Optics
We show the feasibility of controlling the magnetic permeability of optical semiconductor devices on InP-based photonic integration platforms. We have achieved the permeability control of GaInAsP/InP semiconductor waveguides by combining the waveguide with a metamaterial consisting of gate-controlled split ring resonators. The split-ring resonators interact magnetically with light travelling in...
متن کاملDiscrete and Continuous E-Plane Bends in Parallel-Plate Waveguide
Discrete bends in the propagation direction of plane TEM waves can be achieved utilizing the Brewster angle at a planar interface between media of different uniform isotropic pennittivities. This paper extenda this to cases of multiple dielectric or nonuniform permittivity. The nonuniform case is a generali~tion of the Brewster-angle concept. This is also related to special log-spiral solutions...
