Book Les cristaux photoniques pertub  s  les cristaux photoniques non lin  aires    effet Kerr et les m  tamat  riaux en optique

Download or read book Les cristaux photoniques pertub s les cristaux photoniques non lin aires effet Kerr et les m tamat riaux en optique written by Geraldine Guida and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce manuscrit traite des cristaux photoniques (CP) perturbés, non linéaires et enfin des métamatériaux en optique. En premier lieu, nous démontrons que la bande plasmon est due at la métallicité du CP plutôt qu’à l’arrangement périodique des motifs élémentaires, ensuite nous montrons que les bandes permises et interdites sont très robustes face à une imperfection de fabrication. En second lieu, nous développons une nouvelle méthode numérique pour implémenter les propriétés d’un CP non linéaire. Nous validons cette méthode par une autre méthode puis nous présentons une nouvelle structure capable de limiter un faisceau laser de puissance. Enfin, nous révélons les propriétés des nano-spirales et des résonateurs en forme de U, constituant des métamatériaux 3D, et montrons qu’ils sont très robustes face à une imperfection de fabrication et nous analysons la bi anisotropie.

Book Mod  lisation d effets non lin  aires dans les cristaux photoniques  application    la limitation optique

Download or read book Mod lisation d effets non lin aires dans les cristaux photoniques application la limitation optique written by Jean-Jacques Bonnefois and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce mémoire concerne l'utilisation de matériaux non-linéaires optiques dans les cristaux photoniques (CPs) destinés à la limitation optique. En effet, le couplage entre des effets de type cubique (effet Kerr) ou de changement de phase et les phénomènes complexes de diffraction dans les CPs peut mener à des basculements ultra-rapides et auto-déclenchés d'un état transparent vers un état opaque. Dans ce but, de nouvelles méthodes de simulation numérique ab-initio, évolutions de la Fast Fourier Factorization (FFF), et de la Matrix Scattering Method (MSM), sont développées et utilisées. Elles permettent de traiter rigoureusement le cas d'inclusions nonlinéaires inhomogènes ainsi que de traiter l'échauffement d'un CP lors d'une illumination par impulsion laser nanoseconde. Dans la dernière partie du mémoire, la précision de l'approximation homogène est étudiée et partiellement remise en cause. Finalement, une solution de limiteur optique à cristal photonique est donnée.

Book Etude de la g  n  ration param  trique optique dans les cristaux photoniques non lin  aires

Download or read book Etude de la g n ration param trique optique dans les cristaux photoniques non lin aires written by Mohamed Lazoul and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le but de ce travail est de proposer de nouvelles solutions basées sur l’optique non linéaire pour réaliser des sources de lumière cohérente multilongueurs d’onde flexibles et hautement efficaces. On s’intéresse plus particulièrement à la génération paramétrique optique dans les cristaux photoniques non linéaires de second ordre. En premier lieu nous avons étudié la génération paramétrique avec quasi-accord de phase non colinéaire dans les cristaux PPLT-1D. Nous nous sommes intéressés aux mécanismes d’accord de phase ainsi que les longueurs d’onde générées en fonction des paramètres du cristal photonique. Le deuxième volet de ce travail, est consacré à l’étude de la génération et de l’oscillation paramétrique optique dans les cristaux photoniques non linéaires à deux dimensions PPLT-2D. Ces architectures, riches en vecteurs de réseau réciproque, permettent de réaliser plusieurs quasi-accords de phase non colinéaires simultanément. L’emploi des structures 2D pour la réalisation d’oscillateurs paramétriques optiques est une solution très prometteuse pour la réalisation de sources optiques cohérentes multilongueurs d’onde efficaces.

Book Photonic Crystals

Download or read book Photonic Crystals written by Qihuang Gong and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2014-02-06 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a broad overview of photonic crystals and, as the title suggests, covers their principles and applications. It is written from a physics point of view with an emphasis on materials science. Equations are well explained and often completely avoided to increase the readability of the book. The book is divided into eight chapters, starting with a brief introduction. The second chapter deals with different dimensionalities of the photonic crystals and their properties. The third chapter is very interestingly written and provides a survey of the various synthesis methods used for production of photonic crystals, including chemical routes, lithography, and self-assembly of colloidal photonic crystals. Chapters 4–8 constitute the bulk of the book and provide examples of applications of these photonic crystals. Chapter 4 offers a good explanation of optical switching. Bandgap and defect mode switching are also brought into focus along with many other mechanisms—14 different switching mechanisms in all, including thermal, electro, and magneto switching. Frequency tuning of photonic crystal filters with special attention to nanosize photonic crystals is illustrated, providing a direct perspective on applications of these materials in integrated photonic circuits. The transition from chapter 5 to 6 dealing with photonic crystal lasers is smooth, especially after a clear description of frequency tuning. Here, one- to three-dimensional photonic lasers are explained along with laser oscillations produced by a variety of microcavity methods. Metallodielectric and liquid-crystal photonic lasers are equally well illustrated. Chapter 7 introduces logic devices based on photonic crystals. This chapter clearly explains, with the help of simple illustrations, how to obtain AND, OR, and XOR logic gates. Chapter 8 concludes the book by presenting possible applications, including gas, chemical, fluid, and cell sensing; their workings are very well described from a fundamental point of view. The diagrams and illustrations are appropriate and eye catching. There are ample references; thus readers are able to find more detailed information to satisfy their curiosity if the book does not suffice. Even though the introduction provides basics of these photonic crystals, I do get the impression that the bigger picture is missing. A nonexpert may not understand the direct application of such materials right from the beginning of the book. A flowchart or a diagram of these photonic crystals, illustrating applications in daily life at the beginning of the book, could attract a broader readership. In this regard, I believe that this book is most adapted to physicists with a materials science background or vice versa. However, one should take into consideration that the principles of photonic crystals cannot be explained without physics, and therefore the quality of this book remains intact and could very well serve as a textbook for future physicists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first volume of the book concerns the introduction of photonic crystals and applications including design and modeling aspects. Photonic crystals are attractive optical materials for controlling and manipulating the flow of light. In particular, photonic crystals are of great interest for both fundamental and applied research, and the two dimensional ones are beginning to find commercial applications such as optical logic devices, micro electro-mechanical systems (MEMS), sensors. The first commercial products involving two-dimensionally periodic photonic crystals are already available in the form of photonic-crystal fibers, which use a microscale structure to confine light with radically different characteristics compared to conventional optical fiber for applications in nonlinear devices and guiding wavelengths. The goal of the first volume is to provide an overview about the listed issues.

Book Photonic Crystals and Light Localization in the 21st Century

Download or read book Photonic Crystals and Light Localization in the 21st Century written by C.M. Soukoulis and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains papers presented at the NATO Advanced Study Institute (ASI) Photonic Crystals and Light Localization held at the Creta Maris Hotel in Limin Hersonissou, Crete, June 18-30, 2000. Photonic crystals offer unique ways to tailor light and the propagation of electromagnetic waves (EM). In analogy to electrons in a crystal, EM waves propagating in a structure with a periodically modulated dielectric constant are organized into photonic bands, separated by gaps where propagating states are forbidden. There have been proposals for novel applications ofthese photonic band gap (PBG) crystals, with operating frequencies ranging from microwave to the optical regime, that include zero threshold lasers, low-loss resonators and cavities, and efficient microwave antennas. Spontaneous emission, suppressed for photons in the photonic band gap, offers novel approaches to manipulate the EM field and create high-efficiency light-emitting structures. Innovative ways to manipulate light can have a profound iofluence on science and technology.

Book Foundations of Photonic Crystal Fibres

Download or read book Foundations of Photonic Crystal Fibres written by Fr‚d‚ric Zolla and published by Imperial College Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to provide expert guidance to researchers experienced in classical technology, as well as to those new to the field. A variety of perspectives on Photonic Crystal Fibres (PCFs) is presented together with a thorough treatment of the theoretical, physical and mathematical foundations of the optics of PCFs. The range of expertise of the authors is reflected in the depth of coverage, which will benefit those approaching the subject for a variety of reasons and from diverse backgrounds. The study of PCFs enables us to understand how best to optimize their applications in communication or sensing, as devices confining light via new mechanisms (such as photonic bandgap effects). It also assists us in understanding them as physically important structures which require a sophisticated mathematical analysis when considering questions related to the definition of effective refractive index, and the link between large finite systems and infinite periodic systems. This book offers access to essential information on foundation concepts of a dynamic and evolving subject. It is ideal for those who wish to explore further an emerging and important branch of optics and photonics.
