Noise properties of coherent perfect absorbers and critically coupled resonators
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 bandwidth.

Perfect and broadband acoustic absorption by critically coupled sub-wavelength resonators
Perfect absorption is an interdisciplinary topic with a large number of applications, the challenge of which consists of broadening its inherently narrow frequency-band performance. We experimentally and analytically report perfect and broadband absorption for audible sound, by the mechanism of critical coupling, with a sub-wavelength multi-resonant scatterer (SMRS) made of a plate-resonator/cl...
متن کاملRandom 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 کاملNoise Reduction of a Rocket Payload Fairing Using Tuned Vibration Absorbers with Translational and Rotational DOFs
Numerical optimisations were conducted to reduce the noise levels inside the payload bay of a rocket by using vibration and acoustic absorbers attached to the fairing walls. The vibration absorbers act in both translational and rotational axes. The acoustic absorbers were modelled as simplified Helmholtz resonators. A Finite Element model of the vibro-acoustic system was created in ANSYS and th...
متن کاملTheoretical model of homogeneous metal–insulator–metal perfect multi-band absorbers for the visible spectrum
We present a rigorous study of the perfect absorption properties of metal–insulator–metal (MIM) structures in the visible spectrum. We provide a derivation (based on the transfer matrix method) and analysis of the conditions for which the perfect absorption occurs. We show that these conditions are fulfilled when the incident wave excites the eigenmodes of the structure. The quantitative analys...
متن کاملNon-reciprocal transmission in photonic lattices based on unidirectional coherent perfect absorption.
A method for realizing asymmetric (one-way) transmission of discretized light in modulated, linear, and purely passive optical lattices is suggested, which exploits the idea of unidirectional coherent perfect absorption. The system consists of a linear photonic lattice of coupled resonators or waveguides, side coupled to a chain of lossy elements, in which light can avoid the occupation of the ...
