Micro-resonator with metallic mirrors coupled to a bus waveguide.
We demonstrate a micro-resonator based on a channel waveguide terminated with metallic mirrors side coupled to a bus waveguide. Transmission through such a resonant structure implemented in a silicon-on-insulator platform is investigated theoretically and demonstrated experimentally. The resonator is 13.4 μm long, exhibits an unloaded Q-factor of ~2100, and a free spectral range of 21 nm around...
متن کاملTight focusing of plane waves from micro-fabricated spherical mirrors.
We derive a formula for the light field of a monochromatic plane wave that is truncated and reflected by a spherical mirror. Within the scalar field approximation, our formula is valid even for deep mirrors, where the aperture radius approaches the radius of curvature. We apply this result to micro-fabricated mirrors whose size scales are in the range of tens to hundreds of wavelengths, and sho...
متن کاملRayleigh–Sommerfeld diffraction and Poisson's spot
When the Fresnel–Kirchhoff (FK) diffraction integral is evaluated exactly (instead of using the Fresnel approximation), the well-known mathematical inconsistency in the FK boundary conditions leads to unacceptable results for the intensity of Poisson’s spot. The Rayleigh–Sommerfeld (RS) integral has no inconsistencies and leads to an accurate description. The case for RS is bolstered by the obs...
متن کاملA systematic method for aligning double-focusing mirrors.
A comprehensive description of an alignment procedure for double-mirror (Franks) cameras is presented.* It is intended to serve as a practical laboratory guide. The method is summarized in a flow chart and illustrated by beam photographs and intensity profiles. Principals underlying the method are explained. Detailed procedures are given for the initial alignment of the mirrors, optimizing the ...
متن کاملOn the exact Kirchhoff and Rayleigh-Sommerfeld theories for the focusing of an infinite scalar spherical wave-field
The first and second Rayleigh-Sommerfeld diffraction theories, together with the Kirchhoff diffraction theory, are widely used in the formulation of optical diffraction problems [ 1 ]. They arise in the context of the half-space boundary-value problem of scalar wave theory; all sources of the optical field are assumed to be located in the Z~< 0 half-space, and the Z > 0 half-space is taken to b...
