Calculation of the Coupling Coefficient of Twin-Core Fiber Based on the Supermode Theory with Finite Element Method

Currently, coupled mode theory (CMT) is widely used for calculating the coupling coefficient of twin-core fibers (TCFs) that are used in a broad range of important applications. This approach is highly accurate for scenarios with weak coupling between the cores but shows significant errors in the strong coupling scenarios, necessitating the use of a more accurate method for coupling coefficient calculations. Therefore, in this work, we calculate the coupling coefficients of TCFs using the supermode theory with finite element method (FEM) that has higher accuracy than CMT, particularly for the strong coupling TCF. To investigate the origin of the differences between the results obtained by these two methods, the modal field distributions of the supermodes of TCF are simulated and analyzed in detail.

Fiber core mode leakage induced by refractive index variation in high-power fiber laser

This paper presents an investigation of specific optical fiber core mode leakage behavior that occurs in high-power double-clad fiber lasers as a result of thermally-induced refractive index variations. A model of the power transfer between the core modes and the cladding modes during thermally-induced refractive index variations is established based on the mode coupling theory. The results of numerical simulations based on actual laser parameters are presented. Experimental measurements were also carried out, the results showed good agreement with the corresponding simulation results.

Time Symmetry Analysis of Nonlinear Parity Based on S-P Compensation Network Structure

The wireless power transmission system based on nonlinear parity time symmetry is a robust sys-tem that can maintain high-efficiency transmission at a certain distance.Parity-Time Symmetry(PT symmetry)wireless power transfer system,due to its insensitivity to the position of the coupled resonant coil over a large range,can carry out constant power transfer to the load,and through coupled mode theory The PT symmetrical wireless power transmission circuit with S-P structure is analyzed,and the system has different transmission efficiencies in different coupling intervals,and the transmission effect of the structure at different distances is studied with the change of coupling coefficient.Then,the simulation is carried out by MATLAB and origin software.The final results show that the transmission efficiency does not change with the coupling coefficient in the strong coupling region and can maintain high-efficiency transmission.In the weak coupling region,the coupling coefficient has a great influence on the transmission efficiency of the system.

TE Mode Mixing Dynamics in Curved Multimode OpticalWaveguides

Propagation of light through curved graded index optical waveguides supporting an arbitrary high number of modes is investigated.The discussion is restricted to optical wave fields which are well confined within the core region and losses through radiation are neglected.Using coupled mode theory formalism,two new forms for the propagation kernel for the transverse electric(TE)wave as it travels along a curved two-dimensional waveguide are presented.One form,involving the notion of“bend”modes,is shown to be attractive from a computational point of view as it allows an efficient numerical evaluation of the optical field for sharply bent waveguides.

High-sensitive refractive index sensing and excellent slow light based on tunable triple plasmon-induced transparency in monolayer graphene based metamaterial

A patterned monolayer graphene metamaterial structure consisting of six graphene blocks and two graphene strips is proposed to generate triple plasmon-induced transparency(PIT).TriplePIT can be effectively modulated by Fermi levels of graphene.The theoretically calculated results by coupled mode theory show a high matching degree with the numerically simulated results by finite-difference time-domain.Intriguingly,the high-sensitive refractive index sensing and excellent slow-light performance can be realized in the proposed graphene metamaterial structure.The sensitivity(S)and figure of merit can reach up to 5.7115 THz RIU^(-1)and 116.32,respectively.Moreover,the maximum group refractive index is 1036.Hence,these results may provide a new idea for designing graphene-based sensors and slow light devices.

Waveguide-resonator coupling structure design in the lithium niobate on insulator forχ^((2))nonlinear applications

The microring resonator based on lithium niobate on insulator(LNOI)is a promising platform for broadband nonlinearity process because of its strong second-order nonlinear coefficients,the capability of dispersion engineering,etc.It is important to control the energy transmitted into the resonator at different wavelengths,as this becomes difficult for two bands across an octave.In this Letter,we study the effect of different pulley bus-resonator configurations on phase mismatching and mode field overlap.We achieve the control of energy transmission coefficients at different wavebands simultaneously and provide a general design methodology for coupled structures for broadband applications.This paper can contribute to quantum and classical optical broadband applications based on LNOI microring resonators.

Multi-frequency switch and excellent slow light based on tunable triple plasmon-induced transparency in bilayer graphene metamaterial

We propose a novel bilayer graphene terahertz metamaterial composed of double graphene ribbons and double graphene rings to excite a dynamically adjustable triple plasma-induced transparency(PIT)effect.The coupled mode theory(CMT)is used to explain the PIT phenomenon,and the results of the CMT and the finite-difference time-domain simulation show high matching degree.By adjusting the Fermi levels of graphene,we have realized a pentafrequency asynchronous optical switch.The performance of this switch,which is mainly manifested in the maximum modulation depth(MD=99.97%)and the minimum insertion loss(IL=0.33 dB),is excellent.In addition,we have studied the slow-light effect of this triple-PIT and found that when the Fermi level of graphene reaches 1.2 eV,the time delay can reach 0.848ps.Therefore,this metamaterial provides a foundation for the research of multi-frequency optical switches and excellent slow-light devices in the terahertz band.
