Linear Y-Junctions for Modal Splitting from Periodic Waveguides
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a Y-junction device for splitting the two Floquet modes of a periodic waveguide. Although the junction is a passive, linear device, it is designed using nonlinear techniques. It acts as a standard modal splitter in a multimode slab waveguide, but in this case the input modes are degenerate.

Theoretical 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...
متن کاملSnake 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 کاملAnalysis of Nonlinear Cylindrical Waveguide Taper Using Modal Matching Technique
Nonlinear tapered waveguide sections are often needed in the microwave/millimeter-wave system to connect the two waveguides of different radii. The presence of such a taper inevitably introduces unwanted parasitic modes and reflections. The modal matching technique is a powerful computer friendly method for analyzing horn antennas or nonlinear waveguides in which the actual profile is replaced ...
متن کاملLight propagation in periodically modulated complex waveguides
Light propagation in optical waveguides with periodically modulated index of refraction and alternating gain and loss are investigated for linear and nonlinear systems. Based on a multiscale perturbation analysis, it is shown that for many non-parity-time(PT -) symmetric waveguides, their linear spectrum is partially complex; thus light exponentially grows or decays upon propagation, and this g...
