A photonic crystal-based TE to TM polarization converter for integrated optical communication is proposed in this paper. The photonic crystal consists of air circular-holes in slab waveguide. The radius of holes are determined to be 291nm having lattice constant of 640nm using the gap map and band diagram. The polarization converter is composed of an InGaAsP triangular-shaped waveguide on SiO2 ...

A review is given about electron Linacs of KIPT and their some applications for research of radiation effects in reactor materials, channeling, plasma-beam interactions, geology (gamma-activation analysis of ore samples), as well as sterilization of single-use medical products, modification of polymers and semiconductors, isotope production for nuclear medicine etc. 1 ELECTRON LINEAR ACCELERATO...

We theoretically demonstrate the population switching of quantum dots (QD’s), modeled as two-level atoms in idealized one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystals (PC’s) by self-consistent solution of the Maxwell-Bloch equations. In our semiclassical theory, energy states of the electron are quantized, and electron dynamics is described by the atomic Bloch equation, while ele...

Evanescent microwave principles of operation 1 are based on the papers described by Kumar and Smith [1] and Kumar [2]. They described that when a dielectric/semiconductor/biological material is placed in the vicinity of the evanescent waveguide (which is connected to a cavity resonator), the reflection coefficient of the resonator changes. Both the resonance frequency and the quality factor of ...

Transverse interferometric measurements are presented of the plasma channel formed in a hydrogen-filled capillary discharge waveguide recently used to generate 1 GeV electrons in a laser-driven plasma accelerator for the first time. The measurements were found to be in good agreement with nonlocal thermal equilibrium simulations, but showed significant differences with the results of a quasista...
