Interpolation methods for shaped reflector analysis

The diffraction analysis of reflector surfaces which are described only at a discrete set of locations usually leads to the requirement of an interpolation to determine the surface characteristics over a continuum of locations. Two methods of interpolation, the global and the local methods, are presented. The global interpolation representation is a closed-form or series expression valid over the entire surface. The coefficients of a series expression are found by an integration of all of the raw data. Since the number of coefficients used to describe the surface is much smaller than the number of raw data points, the integration effectively provides a smoothing of the raw data. The local interpolation provides a closed-form expression for only a small area of the reflector surface. The subreflector is divided into sectors each of which has constant discretized data. Each area segment is then locally described by a two-dimensional quadratic surface. The second derivative data give the desired smoothed values     

Contactless system for dynamic characterisation of microresonators

A cost-effective system for the contactless characterisation of microresonators vibrating in out-of-plane mode is presented. The system provides swept-frequency excitation to the microresonator, detects the mechanical vibrations by a single-point triangulator made by a laser diode and a four-quadrant detector, and exploits synchronous undersampling of the readout signal to derive the frequency response of the microresonator. The system has been prototyped and tested using a piezoelectric bimorph cantilever as the resonator. A displacement resolution of around 100 nm has been obtained in the frequency range of up to some tens of kilohertz.     

Nonlinear FDTD analysis and experimental verification of four-wave mixing in InGaAsP-InP racetrack microresonators

We demonstrate for the first time a nonlinear finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) analysis of optical parametric four-wave mixing (FWM) in an actual InGaAsP-InP-based racetrack microresonator, and the results are compared with measurements on an experimental prototype. It has been found from the two-dimensional (2-D) and three-dimensional FDTD analyses that the resonance frequencies can be reasonably predicted by an FDTD model by considering the strong material dispersion of the waveguide medium and that the wavelength conversion by FWM is not sensitive to the dimensionality of the model; thus, it is efficiently predicted by the 2-D FDTD model.

Computer analysis method for arbitrarily shaped microstrip antenna with multiterminals

An analysis method is presented for an arbitrarily shaped microstrip antenna with multiterminals. The method is based on the variational method and the modal-expansion technique. Eigenvalues and eigenfunctions are determined using the Rayleigh-Ritz method. Input impedance and other antenna parameters are derived at nonresonance. Furthermore, the network model, useful for the network analysis of a microstrip antenna with multiterminals, is presented by introducing an ideal transformer. Finally, numerical examples are compared with experimental results. The agreement is quite good, and the validity of the present method is confirmed.     

Optical patterns and cavity solitons in quantum-dot microresonators

We study optical transverse instabilities in quantum-dot (QD) microresonators. We develop a model for the QD susceptibility taking into account the inhomogeneous broadening of the dot emission.

Special attention is paid to the formation of such structures as optical patterns and cavity solitons, which could play an important role in the field of optical information processing. Implications for actual QD materials are discussed in view of applications.

Performance analysis of Wi-Fi shaped SIW antennas

In this paper, two different Wi-Fi shaped Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) antennas are designed and fabricated. Both antennas were designed to operate at 7 GHz frequency or in centimeter-wavelength range. The essential parameters and dimensions of the proposed designs were estimated theoretically via mathematical calculations. Both the antennas were then simulated by using CST Studio suite finite element method based simulation software and have been optimized to operate within the Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and Wi-Max frequency bands respectively. In fabrication process, Wi-Fi shaped antennas were designed by taking dimensions of patch as 35 (L) mm × 26 (W) mm × 0.035 (h) mm on Roger RT Duroid 5880 substrate. The copper metal of thickness 8270 μm with loss tangent is 0.0009 is deposited with dielectric constant 2.20 on the substrate. Then microdrill is used to obtained vias or holes on the substrate. Experimental results related to antenna parameters highlighted in the paper further shows that fabricated SIW antennas are in good agreement with the predicted values calculated by the simulated model. Based on the experimental prototypes modeling, a thorough comparative analysis between the two different Wi-Fi shaped SIW antennas is investigated for different parameters like gain, bandwidth, reflection coefficient (S₁₁) and radiation pattern & hence highlighted in the paper. The results of double Wi-Fi shaped antenna reveal better performance than the single Wi-Fi shaped antenna.     

Computer-aided analysis of arbitrarily shaped, coaxialdiscontinuities

The author proposes a method of analyzing a coaxial discontinuity arbitrarily shaped in two dimensions (radial and longitudinal) but maintaining its axial symmetry. It is shown that under such assumptions the equations to be solved correspond to the equations describing an equivalent planar circuit filled with a nonuniform medium. These equations are solved by a version of the finite-difference time-domain method. The method produces a universal computer algorithm capable of solving a wide range of practical problems with no analytical preprocessing. The examples presented show that the method can be effectively used in engineering applications     

Theory of polarization rotation and conversion in verticallycoupled microresonators

Two orthogonally polarized waveguide modes can exchange power through an intermediate level, if the polarization state of that level is tilted with respect to the polarization states of the waveguide. Microrings with modest sidewall angles support such tilted modes. Ultracompact, wavelength selective polarization rotators might be achieved. Simple analytic expressions are derived for polarization rotation by vertically-coupled resonators in terms of geometrical factors

Combining TDLAS and multi-fusion algorithms for methane gas concentration detection

High-precision methane gas detection is of great importance in industrial safety, energy production and environmental protection, etc. However, in the existing measurement techniques, the methane gas concentration information is susceptible to noise, which leads to its useful signal being drowned by noise. A fusion algorithm of variational modal decomposition (VMD) and improved wavelet threshold filtering is proposed, which is used in combination with tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (TDLAS) to implement a non-contact, high-resolution methane gas concentration detection. The fusion algorithm can perform noise reduction and further segmentation of the methane gas detection signal. And the simulation and experiment verify the effectiveness of the fusion algorithm, and the experimental results show that for the detection of air containing 10 ppm, 30 ppm, 60 ppm, 80 ppm, and 99 ppm methane, the errors are 12.75%, 8.18%, 3.37%, 2.46%, and 1.78%, respectively.
