Optical Isolator Utilizing Surface Plasmons
Feasibility of usage of surface plasmons in a new design of an integrated optical isolator has been studied. In the case of surface plasmons propagating at a boundary between a transition metal and a double-layer dielectric, there is a significant difference of optical loss for surface plasmons propagating in opposite directions. Utilizing this structure, it is feasible to fabricate a competiti...
متن کاملLinear and passive silicon optical isolator
On-chip optical isolation plays a key role in optical communications and computing based on silicon integrated photonic structures and has attracted great attentions for long years. Recently there have appeared hot controversies upon whether isolation of light can be realized via linear and passive photonic structures. Here we demonstrate optical isolation of infrared light in purely linear and...
متن کاملEnhancing optical isolator performance in nonreciprocal waveguide arrays.
We investigate the operation of optical isolators based on magneto-optics waveguide arrays beyond the coupled mode analysis. Semi-vectorial beam propagation simulations demonstrate that evanescent tail coupling and the effects of radiation are responsible for degrading the device's performance. Our analysis suggests that these effects can be mitigated when the array size is scaled up. In additi...
متن کاملDemonstration of a chip-based optical isolator with parametric amplification
Despite being fundamentally challenging in integrated (nano)photonics, achieving chip-based light non-reciprocity becomes increasingly urgent in signal processing and optical communications. Because of material incompatibilities in conventional approaches based on the Faraday effect, alternative solutions have resorted to nonlinear processes to obtain one-way transmission. However, dynamic reci...
متن کاملActive Optical Isolator Using Adiabatic Wavelength Conversion in Microcavities
We present an integrated optical isolator based on adiabatic wavelength conversion in microcavities. The isolator uses a time-division sampling method to ensure complete isolation of optical pulses with an extinction of 24 dB. ©2009 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (130.3120) Integrated optics devices; (230.3240) Isolators.
