Observation of PT-Symmetry Breaking in Complex Optical Potentials

A. Guo, +7 more
- 27 Aug 2009 - 
TL;DR: This work demonstrates experimentally passive PT-symmetry breaking within the realm of optics, which leads to a loss induced optical transparency in specially designed pseudo-Hermitian guiding potentials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Linear and nonlinear waves

Graham W. Griffiths, +1 more
- 09 Jul 2009 - 
TL;DR: The study of waves can be traced back to antiquity where philosophers, such as Pythagoras, studied the relation of pitch and length of string in musical instruments and the subject of classical acoustics was laid down and presented as a coherent whole by John William Strutt in his treatise Theory of Sound.
Journal ArticleDOI

Theory of coupled optical PT-symmetric structures

Ramy El-Ganainy, +3 more
- 01 Sep 2007 - 
TL;DR: Starting from Lagrangian principles, a formalism suitable for describing coupled optical parity-time symmetric systems is developed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Broadband graphene polarizer

Qiaoliang Bao, +8 more
- 01 Jul 2011 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the coupling, guiding and polarizing of electromagnetic waves in graphene and demonstrate a graphene-based fibre polarizer that exhibits a transverse electric-pass polarization at an extinction ratio of up to ∼27 dB in the telecommunications band.

Nanoribbon waveguides for subwavelength photonics integration.

Matt Law, +8 more
- 27 Aug 2004 - 
TL;DR: The properties and functions of individual crystalline oxide nanoribbons that act as subwavelength optical waveguides are described and their applicability as nanoscale photonic elements are assessed.
