研究目的
To investigate the effects of nonlinear self-steepening and Raman scattering in a plasmonic waveguide made of nonlinear dielectric material and compare the nonlinear coefficients with those of a standard silica fiber.
研究成果
The nonlinear coefficients in the plasmonic waveguide are up to 300 times larger than those in a standard silica fiber, making it suitable for integrated optical circuits and applications like continuum generation, optical switching, and frequency conversion. The study highlights the potential of nonlinear plasmonic waveguides as building blocks for all-optical devices due to their high nonlinearity and subwavelength scale confinement.
研究不足
The study ignores the imaginary part of the dielectric constant of metal, thus not accounting for loss and propagation length effects in the plasmonic waveguide. The comparison is limited to a standard silica fiber at telecommunication wavelength.
