Optical Nonreciprocity in Asymmetric Optomechanical Couplers
We propose an all-optical integrated nonreciprocal device on the optomechanical platform with a large nonreciprocal bandwidth and low operating power. The device is based on an asymmetric silicon coupler consisting of two branches. One of them is a conventional strip waveguide fixed on the substrate, and the other is a freestanding nanostring suspended above a groove in the substrate. When ligh...
متن کاملOptical Nonreciprocity Based on Optomechanical Coupling
Optical isolation, nonreciprocal phase transmission, and topological phases for light based on synthetic gauge fields have been raising significant interest in the recent literature. Cavity-optomechanical systems that involve two optical modes coupled to a common mechanical mode form an ideal platform to realize these effects, providing the basis for various recent demonstrations of optomechani...
متن کاملNonreciprocity and magnetic-free isolation based on optomechanical interactions
Nonreciprocal components, such as isolators and circulators, provide highly desirable functionalities for optical circuitry. This motivates the active investigation of mechanisms that break reciprocity, and pose alternatives to magneto-optic effects in on-chip systems. In this work, we use optomechanical interactions to strongly break reciprocity in a compact system. We derive minimal requireme...
متن کاملAll-optical soliton switching for the asymmetric fiber couplers
Coupled nonlinear Schrödinger (CNLS) equations for the fiber couplers with asymmetric selfphase modulation (SPM) and cross-phase modulation (XPM) are studied. With symbolic computation, oneand two-soliton solutions are obtained for the constantand variable-coefficient CNLS equations. Switching dynamics of the solitons is discussed, and effects of the second-order group-velocity dispersion β2, S...
متن کاملFabrication of optical filters based on polymer asymmetric Bragg couplers.
In this work, we successfully developed a process to fabricate dual-channel polymeric waveguide filters based on an asymmetric Bragg coupler (ABC) using holographic interference techniques, soft lithography, and micro molding. At the cross- and self-reflection Bragg wavelengths, the transmission dips of approximately -16.4 and -11.5 dB relative to the 3 dB background insertion loss and the 3 dB...
