On Widening the Angular Existence Domain for Dyakonov Surface Waves Using the Pockels Effect
The propagation of Dyakonov surface waves (DSWs) at the planar interface between an isotropic material and a linear electro-optic birefringent material can be dynamically controlled using the Pockels effect. The range of directions for DSW propagation has been previously found to be rather narrow. By careful choice of various parameters, this range of directions can be increased by more than an...
متن کاملOptical half-adder and half-subtracter employing the Pockels effect.
The Pockels effect in periodically poled lithium niobate made it possible to switch optical signals between two orthogonal optical linear polarizations of the vertical and horizontal polarization states. Based on this effect, we demonstrated polarization-based binary optical logic gates: AND, and OR gates. By combining these basic gates with other polarization-based optical logic gates such as ...
متن کاملPolarization singularities and orbital angular momentum sidebands from rotational symmetry broken by the Pockels effect
The law of angular momentum conservation is naturally linked to the rotational symmetry of the involved system. Here we demonstrate theoretically how to break the rotational symmetry of a uniaxial crystal via the electro-optic Pockels effect. By numerical method based on asymptotic expansion, we discover the 3D structure of polarization singularities in terms of C lines and L surfaces embedded ...
متن کاملObservation of the x-ray magneto-optical Voigt effect.
The existence of the x-ray magneto-optical Voigt effect is demonstrated. By means of polarization analysis the Voigt rotation and ellipticity of linearly polarized synchrotron radiation are measured at the Co L3 edge upon transmission through an amorphous Co film. The observed x-ray Voigt rotation is about 7.5 degrees /microm. On the basis of ab initio calculations it is shown that the x-ray Vo...
متن کاملModeling of strain-induced Pockels effect in Silicon.
We propose a theoretical model to describe the strain-induced linear electro-optic (Pockels) effect in centro-symmetric crystals. The general formulation is presented and the specific case of the strained silicon is investigated in detail because of its attractive properties for integrated optics. The outcome of this analysis is a linear relation between the second order susceptibility tensor a...
