The results show that the time evolution of entanglement is sensitive not only to the degree of entanglement of the initial state but also to the ratio between cavity-fiber coupling (v) and atom-cavity coupling (g). This means that the entanglement dynamics can be controlled by choosing specific v and ft.展开更多

By using the discrete coordinates approach, transmission and reflection amplitudes of the propagating single photon in the waveguide are obtained. The influence of the coupling strength between the nanocavity and the external mirror on the single photon scattering spectra is discussed. We also extend the results to the waveguide with linear and quadratic form dispersion relations.展开更多

It is found that this kind of waveguide has more minbands owing to the increasing of the cavity’s size, compared with the traditional line-typed coupled-resonator waveguide. The group velocity of light propagation can be reduced for a further degree when the adjacent annular cavities are interlaced in the perpendicular direction, and a group velocity about 0.00067c (c is the light speed in vacuum) can be obtained.展开更多

New transmission peaks are observed, which are located beside the long wavelength side of each transmission peak in the transmission spectrum of normal long period fiber gratings. The emerging transmission peaks are quite sensitive to both the grating tilted angle and the surrounding refractive index, and the corresponding relationship is discussed. Furthermore, a novel sensing characteristic is investigated about the tilted long period fiber gratings, which is related to the transmission resonant wavelength and peak amplitude.展开更多

The impacts of several fiber parameters on the coupling characteristics of the polarization splitter are investigated by full-vectorial finite element method(FV-FEM) in detail. Through optimizing the fiber configuration, a 4.267-mm-long polarization splitter with a bandwidth of 37 nm is achieved, and its extinction ratio(ER) is as high as 81.2 d B at the wavelength of 1.55 μm. Compared with the hexagonal dual-core photonic crystal fiber(H-D-PCF) based polarization splitter, both ER and bandwidth of the O-D-PCF based one are effectively improved.展开更多
