弱导阶跃折射率光纤中的模式简并问题

模式是光纤光学中的基本概念,也是光纤激光器研究中最关注的问题之一。在一般的教材、文献中对模式的简并问题涉及较少,没有给出清晰、直观的物理图像。文中采用经典的电磁场理论,阐明了矢量模的简并度、标量模的简并度以及矢量模和标量模之间的简并关系。在弱导阶跃折射率光纤中,矢量模和标量模都是描述光场的正交完备基,矢量模[HE1n(o)、HE1n(e)]与标量模[LP0n(ye)、LP0n(xe)]描述的光场空间是2维的,矢量模[TE0n、 HE2n(o)、 HE2n(e)、 TM0n]与标量模[LP1n(yo)、 LP1n(ye)、 LP1n(xo)、LP1n(xe)]描述的光场空间是4维的,矢量模[EHm-1,n(o)、 EHm-1,n(e)、 HEm+1,n(o)、 HEm+1, n(e)]与标量模[LPmn(yo)、LPmn(ye)、LPmn(xo)、LPmn(xe)]描述的光场空间也是4维的。

Investigation of mode coupling in step index plastic optical fibers using the power flow equation

Using the power flow equation, we have examined the mode coupling caused by intrinsic perturbation effects of the step index plastic optical fiber. A numerical solution has been obtained by the explicit finite difference method. Results show the state of mode coupling along the fiber. They indicate that the equilibrium mode distribution is achieved at much shorter lengths compared to the case with glass fibers.     

Lateral analysis of quasi-index-guided injection lasers: Transition from gain to index guiding

In double-heterostructure stripe-geometry semiconductor lasers an effective lateral index stepDelta n_{L}over the stripe region can be induced through evanescent-field coupling. Such a quasi-index-guided device exhibits a transition from the gain-guided to the index-guided regime whenDelta n_{L}is progressively increased. Using parameters appropriate to a 1.3-μm InGaAsP laser, the transition is shown to occur aroundDelta n_{L} sim 5 times 10^{-3}. The exact value ofDelta n_{L}depends on the extent of carrier-induced antiguiding. In the transition region the threshold current decreases rapidly, the lateral mode contracts, and the far field changes from a twin-lobe to a single-lobe pattern. Our analysis suggests that a quasi-index-guided device operates most efficiently for values ofDelta n_{L}at which the index-guided regime is just approached. With a further increase ofDelta n_{L}, the mismatch between the gain and mode profiles leads to lower differential quantum efficiencies. Among other structures, the analysis is applicable to a ridge waveguide laser. For a 1.3-μm laser the optimumDelta n_{L}can be obtained using 0.2-μm-thick cladding layers for a 0.2-μm thick active layer.     

Modal characteristic equation and dispersion curves for an elliptical step-index fiber with a conducting helical winding on the core-cladding boundary - an analytical study

A special type of elliptical step-index fiber with a conducting helical winding on the core-cladding boundary is proposed and investigated theoretically. Using elliptic cylindrical coordinates, boundary conditions are derived and longitudinal field components for the even and odd modes are obtained. The characteristic equation for the waveguide to be studied is determined by solving the fourth-order determinantal equation, which also contains complex quantities. In order to study the fundamental mode, the modal index /spl nu/ is put as /spl nu/=1. The equations obtained involve modified Mathieu functions of the first order and their derivatives. Applying approximations, cutoff conditions are obtained. Numerical computations are made. Dispersion curves are obtained for different pitch angles of the helical winding.     

An analysis of the elliptical reflector

The distribution of the electromagnetic fields diffracted by an elliptical reflector which is fed by a line source at or near one of its two foci is studied. For the elliptic cylinder the magnitude of the fields near the foci, the size of the focal region, the displacement of the focal spot as a function of the source displacement, and the application of the method of stationary phase in calculating the fields at points distant from either focus are calculated. Explicit results are presented for the fields as a function of the eccentricity of the ellipse and the angles subtended by the reflector edges.

Root nature of the transverse electric characteristic equation fora dissipative sphere

Natural frequencies of the transverse electric (TE) modes of a dissipative sphere with Debye-type permittivity are evaluated numerically for different relaxation times. Results provided strong evidence for the influence of dielectric dispersion and dissipation on the resonant behavior. It is show that the TE characteristic equations of the lossless spheres have only simple roots. Based on numerical studies on the dissipative sphere, it is deduced that if a higher-order root should occur, it is not an intrinsic feature of the problem, but merely a consequence of the choice of the numerical values for the physical parameters. From the continuity of the scattering coefficients on the branch cut associated with the square root of the complex permittivity, it is concluded that the branch cut does not contribute to the transient scattered field. It is shown that the branch points do not give rise to extra poles     

Leaking modes of guiding W-fibers with a large difference in the refractive index profiles

For a planar three-layer guiding fiber and a guiding W-fiber, comparative analysis of the characteristics of leaking modes is performed on the basis of numerical solution of the dispersion equation. It is shown that the complex plane distributions of solutions to the dispersion equation for the transverse wave numbers of leaking modes substantially depend on the geometrical and optical parameters of such structures. In particular, it is found out that a guiding W-fiber with a large step in the refractive index ensures the most effective filtering of leaking modes and the highest concentration of the guided mode field.
