Numerical analysis of waveguide-enhanced optical bistability
We present the results of a simulation study of a multilayer structure for which strongly enhanced (resonant) electric fields are produced at the surface of, and in the interior of, a planar waveguide which is evanescently coupled to an incoming beam in a prism geometry. The resulting field enhancements can far exceed those associated with the well-known surface plasmon resonance in a typical s...
متن کاملAnalytical study of optical bistability in silicon-waveguide resonators.
We present a theoretical model that describes accurately the nonlinear phenomenon of optical bistability in silicon-waveguide resonators but remains amenable to analytical results. Using this model, we derive a transcendental equation governing the intensity of a continuous wave transmitted through a Fabry-Perot resonator formed using a silicon-on-insulator waveguide. This equation reveals a du...
متن کاملOptical bistability in metal/dielectric composite with interfacial layer
The optical bistability in a composite, composed of nonlinear metallic particles (spherical or cylindrical) with interfacial layers randomly embedded in a linear dielectric host, is investigated theoretically. It is shown that both interfacial property and the size of metallic particles can dramatically a!ect the optical bistable behavior, and the threshold value is more less in three dimension...
متن کاملOmnidirectional optical attractor in structured gap-surface plasmon waveguide
An optical attractor based on a simple and easy to fabricate structured metal-dielectric-metal (SMDM) waveguide is proposed. The structured waveguide has a variable thickness in the vicinity of an embedded microsphere and allow for adiabatic nano-focusing of gap-surface plasmon polaritons (GSPPs). We show that the proposed system acts as an omnidirectional absorber across a broad spectral range...
متن کاملPropose, Analysis and Simulation of an All Optical Full Adder Based on Plasmonic Waves using Metal-Insulator-Metal Waveguide Structure
This paper proposes a full adder with minimum power consumption and lowloss with a central frequency of 1550nm using plasmonic Metal-Insulator-Metal (MIM)waveguide structure and rectangular cavity resonator. This full adder operates based onXOR and AND logic gates. In this full adder, the resonant wave composition of the firstand second modes has been used and we have ob...
