Reflectionless evanescent-wave amplification by two dielectric planar waveguides.
Utilizing the underlying physics of evanescent-wave amplification by a negative-refractive-index slab, it is shown that evanescent waves with specific spatial frequencies can also be amplified without any reflection simply by two dielectric planar waveguides. The simple configuration allows one to take advantage of the high resolution limit of a high-refractive-index material without contact wi...
متن کاملReflectionless evanescent-wave amplification by two dielectric planar waveguides: erratum.
In a previous Letter [Tsang and Psaltis, Opt. Lett.31, 2741 (2006)], we assert that the total reflection coefficient of two dielectric slabs goes to zero in the limit of single-waveguide resonance. A more careful derivation shows that this is not the case. The correct condition in which reflectionless evanescent-wave amplification can be achieved by two dielectric planar waveguides is derived i...
متن کاملDiffracted evanescent wave model for enhanced and suppressed optical transmission through subwavelength hole arrays.
Transmission enhancements of order 1000 have been reported for subwavelength hole arrays in metal films and attributed to surface plasmon (SP) resonance. We show that the properly normalized enhancement factor is consistently less than 7, and that similar enhancements occur in nonmetallic systems that do not support SPs. We present a new model in which the transmission is modulated not by coupl...
متن کاملEvanescent Wave Fiber Optic Biosensor for Salmonella Detection in Food
Salmonella enterica is a major food-borne pathogen of world-wide concern. Sensitive and rapid detection methods to assess product safety before retail distribution are highly desirable. Since Salmonella is most commonly associated with poultry products, an evanescent wave fiber-optic assay was developed to detect Salmonella in shell egg and chicken breast and data were compared with a time-reso...
متن کاملFiber-optic evanescent wave biosensor for the detection of oligonucleotides.
An automated optical biosensor system based on fluorescence excitation and detection in the evanescent field of a quartz fiber was used to detect 16-mer oligonucleotides in DNA hybridization assays. A biotinylated capture probe was immobilized on the fiber surface via avidin or streptavidin. The hybridization with fluorescein-labeled complementary strands was monitored in real time by fluoresce...
