Unexpected light behaviour in periodic segmented waveguides.

چکیده
In this article, it is shown that multimode periodic segmented waveguides (PSW) are versatile optical systems in which properties of wave chaos can be highlighted. Numerical wave analysis reveals that structures of quantum phase space of PSW are similar to Poincaré sections which display a mixed phase space where stability islands are surrounded by a chaotic sea. Then, unexpected light behavior can occur such as, input gaussian beams do not diverge during the propagation in a highly multimode waveguide.

Snake like light beam propagation in Multimode Periodic Segmented Waveguide
In this article it is shown that for specific initial conditions an input beam injected in a Multimode Periodic Segmented Waveguides (MPSW) does not diffract and remains collimated all along the waveguide whereas a speckle like pattern is expected at the output of a multimode structure. This nonintuitive behavior can be explained with the help of ray and wave chaos properties. A modal analysis ...
متن کاملHighly efficient coupling in lithium niobate photonic wires by the use of a segmented waveguide coupler.
The purpose of this article is to show that efficient light coupling in lithium niobate waveguides presenting a strongly confined mode, such as photonic wires, is possible with the use of a periodically segmented waveguide coupler. The coupler consists in an input periodically segmented waveguide whose mode size is adapted to the mode of a standard single-mode fiber coupled to a photonic wire w...
متن کاملOptical power management using second harmonic generation in periodic segmented waveguides
A combination of loss properties of Periodic Segmented Waveguides and second order wavelength conversion processes is shown to exhibit features which allow to realize an adjustable optical power limiter using classical integrated optics technologies. Results of numerical simulations are presented to confirm the viability of the proposed approach using input and output power levels in the range ...
متن کاملTheoretical treatment of the interaction between two-level atoms and periodic waveguides.
Light transport in periodic waveguides coupled to two-level atoms is investigated theoretically. By using optical Bloch equations and a photonic modal formalism, we derive a convenient semi-analytical expression for calculating the scattering matrix of single atoms trapped in periodic waveguides. The expression that holds for both photonic and plasmonic waveguides represents a basic building bl...
متن کاملTheoretical and computational concepts for periodic optical waveguides.
We present a general, rigorous, modal formalism for modeling light propagation and light emission in three-dimensional (3D) periodic waveguides and in aggregates of them. In essence, the formalism is a generalization of well-known modal concepts for translation-invariant waveguides to situations involving stacks of periodic waveguides. By surrounding the actual stack by perfectly-matched layers...
