Propagation properties of elastic waves in semi-infinite phononic crystals and related waveguides

The transmission and reflection coefficients of two-dimensional semi-infinite solid-solid phononic crystal systems and fluid-fluid phononic waveguide structures have been investigated. The numerical results show that the transmission spectra for longitudinally and transversally polarized incident waves are different, and the spectra of the transmission and reflection coefficients of the semi-infinite system agree well with the band structure. The numerical results show that when a guided wave incident, localized modes are excited, and different polarities have different coupling efficiencies with the incident guided wave. At the same time, far from the cutoff frequency, the guided wave couples out of semi-infinite waveguide highly efficiently.     

Multimode integrated optics using dielectric and hollow metallic waveguides

For multimode optical fiber links integrated optical circuits are needed. A first approach has been made by using thick film techniques. We demonstrate an advanced technology using two different materials for the guide. By that we can fabricate high efficient micro optics, like lenses, prisms, beam splitters etc.. To avoid loss within the dielectric guide hollow metallic optical waveguides have been investigated. A 3dB fiber-fiber coupler with an overall loss of 1.3 dB was realized as well as the principle of an integrated prism spectrometer.

A simplified mathematical model of two-dimensionally(2D) periodic thin-film wavegmide is proposed and the characteristics of wave propagation are shown to be governed by a five-term recurrence relation with dyadic admittance coefficients. The generalized transverse resonance method can be used to analyze any complicated 2D periodic thin-film waveguide. The dispersion characteristics are described by both approximation analysis and numerical calculation. The theoretical explanation and physical understanding of the effecis of 2D periodic modulation provided by our analysis and resulis can give sound support to the engineering applications.
