Multimodal reflectivity of CRIGF filters: First experimental observation and modelling
2015
International audience; Cavity Resonator Integrated Guided-mode Resonance Filter (CRIGF) are a new class of filtering reflectors whose selected wavelength and spectral width are independent of the angle of incidence unlike GMRF. These particular properties allow both compactness and a high angular acceptance. However, ours studies show that CRIGFs offer simultaneously spectral and modal filtering and we evidence high-spatial-order reflected modes. In this paper, we will present characterization of the spectral and spatial profile that demonstrates the existence of these high-order modes. In addition, we will present a model based on the physical understanding of implied phenomena to explain…
Elastic constants in RbI, determined by inelastic neutron scattering
1978
Long-wavelength acoustic phonons have been studied in the whole (100)-plane of RbI at 295 K by means of inelastic neutron scattering. The raw data have been corrected for resolution effects taking into account the curvature of the dispersion surface and variations of the mode eigenvectors. The shifts of the neutron groups due to these resolution effects are discussed in detail. The analysis of the experimental results gives for the zero sound elastic constantsc11=28.15±0.5,c12=3.7±0.5 andc44=2.85±0.1 1010 dyn/cm2. A comparison with first sound elastic constants taken from ultrasonic measurements yields significant differences between the high and low frequency elastic constantsc11 andc″=(c1…
Mode-coupling crossover in viscous toluene revealed by neutron and light scattering
1998
The dynamics of supercooled toluene, studied in a GHz-THz range by incoherent neutron and depolarized light scattering, is found to be in full accord with mode coupling predictions. Around the susceptibility minimum, neutron spectra are wavenumber independent and proportional to light scattering data; the fast β-relaxation scaling law applies; amplitude and frequency diverge with power laws that extrapolate towards a crossover temperature Tc K.
Relationship between scanning near-field optical images and local density of photonic states
2001
From numerical calculations based on Green's dyadic formalism, we show that a scanning near-field optical microscope (SNOM) working with a point-like illuminating probe delivers images that contain features directly related to the local density of photonic states (LDOS). More precisely, an unambiguous identification of the partial LDOSs (x, y or z polarized) can be made in the SNOM images when the solid angle of detection reaches 2π sr.
Compact dielectric reflective elements II Multichannel filter of closely spaced spectral bands
1994
The optical design of an interference wedge filter providing the simultaneous separation of a number of closely spaced spectral bands is studied. Multiple reflections of the incident collimated beam within the wedge are initiated, each of them characterized by a different angle of incidence and consequently by specific spectral parameters of the transmitted band. Model calculations based on the measured angular dependences of filter transmission parameters have been performed. The design is proposed for applications in optical communications (wavelength division demultiplexing), analytical spectroscopy (minipolychromators), color analysis, and similar areas.
‘Nonlocal’ dispersion cancelation with classical light
2009
We show a classical analog of the original nonlocal dispersion cancelation effect in intensity interferometry with stationary light obeying Gaussian statistics. The dispersion compensation is due to the uncorrelation of the spectral components of the radiation. Although this classical counterpart phenomenon is not nonlocal in a strict quantum mechanical sense, it suggests that some second-order interference devices relying on temporal entanglement do not require a quantum light source.
Simulation of matrix product states for dissipation and thermalization dynamics of open quantum systems
2020
Abstract We transform the system/reservoir coupling model into a one-dimensional semi-infinite discrete chain through unitary transformation to simulate the open quantum system numerically with the help of time evolving block decimation (TEBD) algorithm. We apply the method to study the dynamics of dissipative systems. We also generate the thermal state of a multimode bath using minimally entangled typical thermal state (METTS) algorithm, and investigate the impact of the thermal bath on an empty system. For both cases, we give an extensive analysis of the impact of the modeling and simulation parameters, and compare the numerics with the analytics.
Fractal dimension of superfluid turbulence : A random-walk toy model
2021
This paper deals with the fractal dimension of a superfluid vortex tangle. It extends a previous model [J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. {\bf 43}, 205501 (2010)] (which was proposed for very low temperature), and it proposes an alternative random walk toy model, which is valid also for finite temperature. This random walk model combines a recent Nemirovskii's proposal, and a simple modelization of a self-similar structure of vortex loops (mimicking the geometry of the loops of several sizes which compose the tangle). The fractal dimension of the vortex tangle is then related to the exponents describing how the vortex energy per unit length changes with the length scales, for which we take recent pr…
Hyper-Entanglement in Time and Frequency
2019
Hyper-entanglement, i.e. entanglement in more than one degree of freedom, enables a multiplicative increase in Hilbert space size. Such systems can be treated as multi-partite even though the number of state particles is not increased, making them highly attractive for applications in high-capacity quantum communications and information processing [1]. Until now, such states have been realized only using combinations of fully independent degrees of freedom, described by commuting operators, such as polarization and optical paths. Time and frequency, in turn, are linked and described by non-commuting operators. Here, using two discrete forms of energy-time entanglement we demonstrate that ti…
Time-Independent Canonical Perturbation Theory
2001
First we consider the perturbation calculation only to first order, limiting ourselves to only one degree of freedom. Furthermore, the system is to be conservative, ∂ H∕∂ t = 0, and periodic in both the unperturbed and perturbed case. In addition to periodicity, we shall require the Hamilton–Jacobi equation to be separable for the unperturbed situation. The unperturbed problem H0(J0) which is described by the action-angle variables J0 and w0 will be assumed to be solved. Thus we have, for the unperturbed frequency: $$\displaystyle{ \nu _{0} = \frac{\partial H_{0}} {\partial J_{0}} }$$ (10.1) and $$\displaystyle{ w_{0} =\nu _{0}t +\beta _{0}\;. }$$ (10.2) Then the new Hamiltonian reads, up t…
