Berry phase mechanism for optical gyrotropy in stripe-ordered cuprates
Optical gyrotropy, the lifting of degeneracy between left and right circularly polarized light, can be generated by either time-reversal or chiral symmetry breaking. In the high-Tc superconductor La2−xBaxCuO4 (LBCO), gyrotropy onsets at the same temperature as charge stripe order, suggesting that the rotation of the stripe direction from one plane to the next generates a helical pattern that br...
متن کاملOptical Magnus Effect as a Consequence of Berry Phase Anisotropy
The first consistent analysis of asymptotic approximation of geometrical optics (GO) of electromagnetic waves in smoothly inhomogeneous isotropic media was made in a work by Rytov [1]. There he studied the GO in first approximation; also he gave a well-known law of rotation of polarization plane for electromagnetic wave. Geometrical attributes of this law were described further in detail by Vla...
متن کاملA Proposal for a New Method of Modeling of the Quantum Dot Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers
With the advancement of nanoscale semiconductor technology,semiconductor optical amplifiers are used to amplify and process all-optical signals. Inthis paper, with the aim of calculating the gain of quantum dot semiconductor opticalamplifier (QD-SOA), two groups of rate equations and the optical signal propagatingequation are used in the active layer of the device. For t...
متن کاملThree-dimensional phase imaging with a scanning optical-fiber interferometer.
We describe a quantitative method for measuring the phase of a propagating wave field in three dimensions by use of a scanning optical-fiber interferometer. Because phase modulation in the reference arm is exploited, this technique is insensitive to large variations in the intensity of the field being studied and is therefore highly suitable for measurement of phase within spatially confined op...
متن کاملImaging through turbulence with a quadrature-phase optical interferometer.
We present an improved technique for imaging through turbulence at visible wavelengths using a rotation shearing pupil-plane interferometer, intended for astronomical and terrestrial imaging applications. While previous astronomical rotation shearing interferometers have made only visibility modulus measurements, this interferometer makes four simultaneous measurements on each interferometric b...
