Photon tunneling into a single-mode planar silicon waveguide.
We demonstrate the direct excitation of a single TE mode in 25 nm thick planar crystalline silicon waveguide by photon tunneling from a layer of fluorescent dye molecules deposited by the Langmuir-Blodgett technique. The observed photon tunneling rate as a function of the dye-silicon separation is well fitted by a theoretical tunneling rate, which is obtained via a novel approach within the fra...
متن کاملSingle-arm double-mode double-order planar waveguide interferometric sensor.
A sensor is described for which interference measurements of the phase delay between two propagating modes of different orders in a slab thin-film waveguide are used as the sensing technique. The basic building block of the sensor is a polymer film doped with an indicator dye such as Bromocresol Purple. The modes of two orders such as TM(0) and TM(1) are simultaneously excited in the light-guid...
متن کاملAn all-silicon, single-mode Bragg cladding rib waveguide.
In this paper, we demonstrate a direct method of fabricating an all-silicon, single-mode Bragg cladding rib waveguide using proton beam irradiation and subsequent electrochemical etching. The Bragg waveguide consists of porous silicon layers with a low index core of 1.4 that is bounded by eight bilayers of alternating high and low refractive index of 1.4 and 2.4. Here, the ion irradiation acts ...
متن کاملQuantitative photon tunneling and shear-force microscopy of planar waveguide splitters and mixers
A combined photon scanning tunneling and shear-force microscope has been developed to investigate the optical field distribution in a planar waveguide splitter and a multibranch mode mixer. The optical intensity distribution just above the surface of a planar waveguide is mapped with subwavelength resolution by a tapered optical fiber that probes the evanescent field. Simultaneously, the topogr...
متن کاملAsymmetric coherent photon tunneling filter in an optical waveguide structure
Based on the well-known electron coherent tunneling phenomenon, by simulation, a photonic tunneling filter fabricated in an optical waveguide is proposed. The Bragg grating structure is applied as the photonic barrier. Two photonic barriers confine a coherent resonance cavity or photon-quantum-well. We report an asymmetric-barrier structure with opposite phase. In this configuration, the centra...
