Number and location of zero-group-velocity modes.
The frequency-wavenumber spectra of laminated media often exhibit anomalous modes with descending branches whose group velocity is negative, and these terminate at a minimum point at which the group velocity transitions from negative to positive. These minima are associated with resonant conditions in the medium, which have been clearly observed in experiments and in the nondestructive testing ...
متن کاملInfluence of the anisotropy on zero-group velocity Lamb modes.
Guided waves in a free isotropic plate (symmetric S(n) and antisymmetric A(n) Lamb modes) exhibit a resonant behavior at frequencies where their group velocity vanishes while their phase velocity remains finite. Previous studies of this phenomenon were limited to isotropic materials. In this paper, the optical generation and detection of these zero-group velocity (ZGV) Lamb modes in an anisotro...
متن کاملDistinguishing zero-group-velocity modes in photonic crystals
We examine differences between various zero-group-velocity modes in photonic crystals, including those that arise from Bragg diffraction, anticrossings, and band repulsion. Zero-group velocity occurs at points where the group velocity changes sign, and therefore is conceptually related to “left-handed” media, in which the group velocity is opposite to the phase velocity. We consider this relati...
متن کاملZero-group-velocity modes in chalcogenide holey photonic-crystal fibers.
We demonstrate that a holey photonic-crystal fiber with chalcogenide-glass index contrast can be designed to have a complete gap at a propagation constant beta = 0 that also extends into the non-zero beta region. This type of bandgap (previously identified only at index contrasts unattainable in glasses) opens up a regime for guiding zero-group-velocity modes not possible in holey fibers with t...
متن کاملElectroweak Strings, Zero Modes and Baryon Number
Topological defects have received widespread attention in the particle physics community since the discovery of string [1] and monopole [2] solutions in the 70’s in certain toy field theories. These discoveries have also provided impetus to considerable work in cosmology and astrophysics since the early universe is precisely the arena in which defects are likely to play a major role. Over the l...
