研究目的
Investigating the tunable giant spatial and angular Goos-H?nchen (GH) shifts in a metal-clad waveguide backed by a coherent atomic medium.
研究成果
The proposed scheme provides more flexibility for manipulating the spatial and the angular GH shifts, and it has potential applications in optical switches, beam steering, etc. The study demonstrates that by adjusting the parameters of the atomic system, the spatial and angular shifts can be greatly enhanced and their direction can be switched.
研究不足
The study is theoretical and numerical, and actual experimental realization may face challenges in controlling the coherent atomic medium and achieving the precise conditions for observing the predicted effects.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study proposes a metal-clad waveguide backed by a coherent atomic medium to achieve tunable giant spatial and angular GH shifts. The methodology involves theoretical modeling and numerical calculations to derive expressions for spatial and angular GH shifts for the reflected light.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The system consists of a prism, a thin metal-cladding with thickness d2, a dielectric waveguide with thickness d3, and a coherent atomic medium. The permittivity of the coherent medium is written as ε4 = 1 + χ, with χ being the susceptibility.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
A silver film is utilized as the cladding metal. The system is modeled using a three-level V-type atomic system for the coherent medium.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Light beam is incident upon the prism-silver interface at angle θ and coupled into the waveguide by an evanescent wave when the x-component of the wave vector matches the propagation constant of the guided mode. The spatial and angular GH shifts are calculated based on the complex reflection coefficient of the four-layer structure.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The study uses numerical calculations to analyze the dependence of GH shifts on various parameters such as waveguide thickness, coupling field Rabi frequency, and detuning.
