Analysis of mode coupling due to spherical defects in ideal fully metal-coated scanning near-field optical microscopy probes.
We investigate the effect of defects in the metal-coating layer of a scanning near-field optical microscopy (SNOM) probe on the coupling of polarization modes using rigorous electromagnetic modeling tools. Because of practical limitations, we study an ensemble of simple defects to identify important trends and then extrapolate these results to more realistic structures. We find that a probe wit...
متن کاملObservation of critical coupling in a fiber taper to a silica-microsphere whispering-gallery mode system
We present the observation of critical coupling in a high- Q fused-silica microsphere whispering-gallery mode resonator coupled to a fiber taper. Extremely efficient and controlled power transfer to high- Q ( approximately 10(7)) resonators has been demonstrated. Off-resonance scattering loss was measured to be less than 0.3%. On-resonance extinction in transmitted optical power through the fib...
متن کاملMicro-Temperature Sensor based on Optical Whispering Gallery Mode of Fiber Taper-Microsphere Coupling System
Miniaturized Whispering Gallery Mode (WGM) temperature sensor has great potentials of high resolution and great on-chip integration capability. This study focuses on the development of this kind of sensor based on the shifting wavelength of the optical resonance due to thermal expansion and thermo-optic effects of a silica microsphere. Excellent linear dependence of the wavelength shift versus ...
متن کاملA photonic-plasmonic mode converter using mode-coupling-based polarization rotation for metal-inserted silicon platform
We present a photonic-plasmonic mode converter using modecoupling-based polarization rotation for connecting a silicon wire and hybrid plasmonic waveguides on a metal-inserted silicon platform. By using the polarization rotator based on defect-introduced silicon wire waveguide, the proposed mode converter can convert the photonic TE mode into the hybrid plasmonic TM mode. At the beginning, to i...
متن کاملNonlinear coupling in graphene-coated nanowires
We propose and analyze nonlinear coupler based on a pair of single mode graphene-coated nanowires. Nonlinear wave interactions in such structure are analyzed by the coupled mode equations derived from the unconjugated Lorentz reciprocity theorem. We show that the routing of plasmons in the proposed structure can be controlled by the input power due to the third order nonlinear response of graph...
