Negative group velocity pulse tunneling through a coaxial photonic crystal
نویسندگان
چکیده
An easily configurable experimental system is described in which negative group velocity tunneling of electrical pulses can be studied. Negative group velocity corresponds to the case in which the peak of a tunneled pulse exits before the peak of the incident pulse has entered the sample. In the experiments outlined herein, the tunneling occurs through the forbidden transmission region of a quarter-wavelength interference filter created from alternating segments of two different impedance coaxial cables. The equipment used for these experiments consists of two function generators and an oscilloscope, items typically found in most science departments. © 2002 American Institute of Physics. @DOI: 10.1063/1.1508172#

Square Lattice Elliptical- Core Photonic Crystal Fiber Soliton-Effect Compressor at 1550nm
In this paper, we investigate the evolution of supercontinuum and femtosecond optical pulses generation through square lattice elliptical-core photonic crystal fiber (PCF) at 1550 nm by using both full-vector multipole method (M.P.M) and novel concrete algorithms: symmetric split-step Fourier (SSF) and fourth order Runge Kutta (RK4) which is an accurate method to solve the general nonlinear...
متن کامل“ Superluminal ” Pulse Propagation
With the recent rediscovery of slowand fast-light effects, there has been much interest in pulse propagation phenomena that lead to apparently superluminal pulse transmission. This raises immediate questions about causality and special relativity violations and elicits curiosity about the physical mechanisms responsible for these effects. This thesis will address these issues theoretically and ...

In this paper the effect of photonic band gap on the group velocity of reflected pulse from a dielectric slab doped with two-level or three-level atoms has been investigated. It is assumed that the slab is sandwiched between a uniform medium (like vacuum) and a one-dimensional photonic crystal. It is shown that the reflected pulse from the slab doped with two-level (three-level) atoms will be...
متن کاملParametric gain control of a pulse in birefringent photonic crystal fibers
Propagation of a modulationally amplified Gaussian pulse is considered inside a birefringent optical fiber. We show analytically that, in addition to a reduction in the parametric gain and a change in the pulse’s group velocity, the third-order dispersion allows the generation of a temporal Airy-shaped pulse. Furthermore, pulse spreading in the temporal domain and chirping in the spectral domai...
متن کاملSlow pulses in disordered photonic-crystal waveguides.
Using a 3D fully-vectorial coupled Bloch-mode method, we present a systematic study of the transport of slow-light pulses in single-mode photonic-crystal waveguides (PhCW) with a realistic disorder model. For the intermediate regime corresponding to waveguide lengths of the order of the mean-free path (3 dB attenuation), we show that the group-velocity has a strong impact on the pulse broadenin...
