A unified optical theorem for scalar and vectorial wave fields.

چکیده
The generalized optical theorem is an integral relation for the angle-dependent scattering amplitude of an inhomogeneous scattering object embedded in a homogeneous background. It has been derived separately for several scalar and vectorial wave phenomena. Here a unified optical theorem is derived that encompasses the separate versions for scalar and vectorial waves. Moreover, this unified theorem also holds for scattering by anisotropic elastic and piezoelectric scatterers as well as bianisotropic (non-reciprocal) EM scatterers.

Numerical Analysis of Mushroom-type Traveling Wave Electroabsorption Modulators Using Full-Vectorial Finite Difference Method
Larger width of P-cladding layer in p-i-n waveguide of traveling wave electroabsorption modulator (TWEAM) results in lower resistance and microwave propagation loss which provides an enhanced high speed electro-optical response. In this paper, a fullvectorial finite-difference-based optical mode solver is presented to analyze mushroom-type TWEAM for the first time. In this analysis, the discont...
متن کاملA Potential Method for Body and Surface Wave Propagation in Transversely Isotropic Half- and Full-Spaces
The problem of propagation of plane wave including body and surface waves propagating in a transversely isotropic half-space with a depth-wise axis of material symmetry is investigated in details. Using the advantage of representation of displacement fields in terms of two complete scalar potential functions, the coupled equations of motion are uncoupled and reduced to two independent equations...
متن کاملNonparaxial fields with maximum joint spatial-directional localization. II. Vectorial case.
The monochromatic nonparaxial vector fields that achieve a minimum spatial spread for a given directional spread are found. The derivation of these fields is analogous to the one presented in part I of this series for the case of scalar fields. This derivation is based on a variational treatment and multipolar expansion. The resulting lower bounds for the spreads of vector fields turn out to be...

A vectorial time-domain simulator of integrated optical structures containing second order nonlinearities is presented. The simulation algorithm is based on the direct solution of nonlinear Maxwell’s equations representing the propagating fields and is solved using the FDTD method. Because the proposed algorithm accounts for the full optical coefficient tensor, the inaccuracies associated with ...
متن کاملVectorial wave-matching mode analysis of integrated optical waveguides
Abstract: For mode fields of integrated optical waveguides with piecewise constant and rectangular permittivity profile, Maxwell’s equations reduce to the twodimensional Helmholtz wave equation, supplemented by continuity requirements on the boundaries between different media. Two basic components of the mode field are expanded into factorizing harmonic or exponential functions, separately on e...
