TLDR
In this paper, the authors describe optical linear and nonlinear properties of layered materials which follow a suitable process to realize a self-similar or fractal structure, which is very interesting.Abstract:
Composites are an important class of optical materials for use in nonlinear optics. Among them, layered materials are very interesting. In the present paper we describe optical linear and nonlinear properties of layered materials which follow a suitable process to realize a self-similar or fractal structure.read more

Narrowband DWDM filters based on Fibonacci-class quasi-periodic structures
TL;DR: A narrowband DWDM filter structure, whose reflection band characteristics, meets the ITU-T standard, based on Fibonacci quasi-periodic structures composed of multilayers with large index differences is proposed.

Emittance and absorptance tailoring by negative refractive index metamaterial-based Cantor multilayers
Milan Maksimovic,Zoran Jakšić +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered the occurrence of phase compensation in truncated quasi-periodic (fractal) Cantor multilayers and showed that phase compensation could significantly extend the applicability of Cantor-type multiilayers containing negative refractive index materials.
Spectral analysis of the fibonacci-class one-dimensional quasi-periodic structures
TL;DR: In this article, the spectral properties of the Fibonacci-class one-dimensional quasi-periodic structures, FC J(n), as an important optical structure are investigated using analytical relations.

TL;DR: This work shows numerically that the reflected laser pulse is subjected to real compression: not only does its duration decrease but also its amplitude rises, and it is demonstrated that the Fibonacci structure with the thickness of only 2.8 microm can compress a phase-modulated laser pulse by up to 30%.

Properties of defect modes in one-dimensional symmetric defective photonic crystals
Tzu Chyang King,Chien Jang Wu +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors theoretically investigate the properties of defect modes in one-dimensional symmetric defective photonic crystals and find that the positions and the number of defects can be significantly changed due to the change in the defect thickness.

The Fractal Geometry of Nature
TL;DR: This book is a blend of erudition, popularization, and exposition, and the illustrations include many superb examples of computer graphics that are works of art in their own right.

The Fractal Geometry of Nature
TL;DR: A blend of erudition (fascinating and sometimes obscure historical minutiae abound), popularization (mathematical rigor is relegated to appendices) and exposition (the reader need have little knowledge of the fields involved) is presented in this article.

Localization of light waves in Fibonacci dielectric multilayers.
W. Gellermann,W. Gellermann,Mahito Kohmoto,Mahito Kohmoto,Bill Sutherland,Bill Sutherland,P. C. Taylor,P. C. Taylor +7 more
TL;DR: A scaling of the transmission coefficient with increasing Fibonacci sequences at quarter-wavelength optical thicknesses is observed and can be considered as experimental evidence for the localization of the light waves.

Nonlinear susceptibility of composite optical materials in the Maxwell Garnett model.
John E. Sipe,Robert W. Boyd +1 more
TL;DR: This work calculates the nonlinear susceptibility of a composite optical material comprised of spherical inclusion particles contained within a host material and allows both constituents to respond nonlinearly and to exhibit linear absorption.

Relation between the angular dependence of scattering and the statistical properties of optical surfaces
J. M. Elson,J. M. Bennett +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a relation from vector scattering theory has been used to predict the angular distribution of scattered light from optical surfaces as a function of the wavelength, optical constants of the material, and spectral density function.
