The method of conformal transformation is applied to solve the bound state problem for two-dimensional crossed wires with sharp and with smooth circular corners, for T-shaped and L-shaped wires and a number of other geometries. It is shown that in this method the wave equation with Dirichlet boundary condition on the boundaries of these wires can be transformed to a Schrodinger equation with a unique two-dimensional energy-dependent noneseparable potential. The results for various geometries indicate that sharp corners are essential in generating the bound states.

By extending the transfer matrix technique from the real domain to the complex, the complex eigenvalue equation is presented for both transverse electric and transverse magnetic modes of absorptive multiple-quantum well optical waveguides, and a computer program is developed to solve the eigenvalue equation in the complex plane. On the basis of the computed results, the effects of the structural parameters and the refractive index profile on the mode propagation and loss properties are analysed and discussed for InxGa1-xAs/AlyGa1-yAs absorptive multiple-quantum-well optical waveguides. The results indicate that, if approximate guided structural parameters and an appropriate refractive index profile are selected, higher-order modes can be controlled and single-mode propagation can be realized in the multiple-quantum-well optical waveguide with lower mode loss.

The finite-element approach to the eigenmode analysis of a photonic bandgap cavity by use of an anisotropic perfectly matched layer absorbing boundary is presented. This method rigorously calculates the resonant frequency, the field pattern, and the quality factor of the resonant mode of a finite-sized cavity in free space. The validity of the approach is examined through its application to two-dimensional photonic bandgap cavities. Analyses of numerical error for the resonant frequencies and the quality factor of the cavities demonstrate the accuracy and reliability of our approach, which used nonuniform grids, higher-order elements, and the perfectly matched layer. Far-field patterns of the resonant modes were obtained by simple transformation. Because the perfectly matched layer can represent the real boundary condition well, cavities of any size and shape can be analyzed with the desired accuracy.

We propose what is, to our knowledge, a novel technique for fabricating a segmented waveguide by optical irradiation in a photorefractive LiNbO3:Fe crystal. The waveguide consists of many localized high-refractive-index regions that are fabricated by illumination of a focused laser beam. We fabricate straight, curved, and Y-branch waveguides. In the straight waveguides the transmitted power of a guided beam as a function of the period of segmentation and the dark decay time are measured. The tolerance for fabrication errors is also investigated both experimentally and numerically. The fabricated waveguide can be optically modified. We demonstrate that a curved structure can be transformed into a Y-branch structure. (C) 1998 Optical Society of America.

A variable number of quasi-two-dimensional dark spatial solitons of adjustable transverse velocities could be generated by a proper choice of the initial phase profile (odd or even) and the width of the crossed dark stripes and the background-beam intensity. The possibility of branching a single input probe beam into ordered structures of subbeams is demonstrated numerically in a bulk self-induced-defocusing Kerr nonlinear media. The energy-density branching efficiency for each subbeam is evaluated and discussed. (C) 1997 Optical Society of America.

Uniform upconversion in erbium-doped silicate glasses is investigated as a function of glass composition, concentration, and fabrication method. Comparisons of upconversion coefficients are made among soda lime silicate and aluminosilicate bulk glasses and soda lime silicate waveguides. Comparisons are also made with studies performed by other researchers. The results indicate that both the composition and the preparation method of the glass affect the value of the upconversion coefficient, with as much as a factor-of-4 variation observed at fixed Er3+ concentration. Values of the upconversion coefficient are found to be consistent with the Forster-Dexter microscopic model. (C) 1997 Optical Society of America.

wavelength-division demultiplexing by superimposed gratings (supergrating) in a planar waveguide is modeled, accounting for intergrating coupling, and a theoretical decoupling criterion that serves as a guideline for practical design is presented. Superimposed gratings were formed by direct photoinscription in a photosensitive silica planar waveguide, which is a promising method for practical optical circuit applications. A 1 x 8 channel wavelength-division multiplexer is demonstrated experimentally as a proof-of-concept study. The effects on experimental performance of wavelength-selectivity broadening and finite photosensitive index-modulation depth are discussed. (C) 1997 Optical Society of America.

We present experimental evidence to demonstrate the feasibility of a promising new quasi-phase-matching technique in AlGaAs multiple-quantum-well waveguides. Non-phase-matched second-harmonic-generation measurements indicate that, for sub-half-bandgap excitation near 1.5 mu m, quantum-well intermixing by impurity-free vacancy disordering results in a reduction of the nonlinear susceptibility chi(zxy)((2)) (similar to 340 pm/V) by 17%. Relatively low intermixed waveguide losses, and the high spatial resolution of the impurity-free vacancy disordering process, suggest that periodic intermixing along the direction of propagation should lead to useful frequency-conversion efficiencies.
