TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report theory and experiment on ultra-high-order modes in a symmetrical metal-cladding thick optical waveguide, which consists of a LiNbO3 slab or a glass slab with a thickness greater than 0.1mm, two gold films deposited on the upper and bottom sides of the slab serving as the cladding of the waveguide.
Abstract: We report theory and experiment on ultrahigh-order modes in a symmetrical metal-cladding thick optical waveguide. The waveguide consists of a LiNbO3 slab or a glass slab with a thickness greater than 0.1mm, two gold films deposited on the upper and bottom sides of the slab serving as the cladding of the waveguide. By using the free-space coupling technique, ultrahigh-order modes (m>2000) are excited, and its high sensitivity to both refractive index and thickness of the guide, as well as the polarization independence are demonstrated.

TL;DR: The validity of the stationary-phase approach is demonstrated by numerical simulations for a Gaussian-shaped beam and it is shown that the lateral shift of the reflected beam is equal to that of the transmitted beam in the symmetric configuration.
Abstract: It is reported that when a light beam travels through a slab of left-handed medium in the air, the lateral shift of the transmitted beam can be negative as well as positive. The necessary condition for the lateral shift to be positive is given. The validity of the stationary-phase approach is demonstrated by numerical simulations for a Gaussian-shaped beam. A restriction to the slab's thickness is provided that is necessary for the beam to retain its profile in the traveling. It is shown that the lateral shift of the reflected beam is equal to that of the transmitted beam in the symmetric configuration.

TL;DR: In this article, a sectional nog structure for fastening a covering element to a foamed plastic slab (5, 6, 35, 39, 49, 54) is presented.
Abstract: A sectional nog structure for fastening a covering element to a foamed plastic slab (5, 6, 35, 39, 49, 54) comprises at least one insert (2, 3), flush-insertable in the slab (5, 6, 35, 39, 49, 54) and associated with a tierod (4), having a base (10) accessible from the outside of the slab and constituting respective means for fastening to the slab (5, 6, 35, 39, 49, 54) the chosen covering element. Advantageously, this sectional nog structure allows to manufacture composite and modular construction elements, such as for example lost formworks and panels incorporating at least one foamed plastic slab and being able to support any covering element.
