Approximating transmission and reflection spectra near isolated nondegenerate resonances

Abstract

A linear scattering problem for which incoming and outgoing waves are restricted to a finite number of radiation channels can be precisely described by a frequency-dependent scattering matrix. The entries of the scattering matrix, as functions of the frequency, give rise to the transmission and reflection spectra. To find the scattering matrix rigorously, it is necessary to solve numerically the partial differential equations governing the relevant waves. In this paper, we consider resonant structures with an isolated nondegenerate resonant mode of complex frequency ${\omega }_{\star }$, and show that for real frequencies near $ω_0 = \mbox{Re}(ω_\star)$, the transmission and reflection spectra can be approximated using only the scattering matrix at ${\omega }_0$ and information about the resonant mode. We also present a revised temporal coupled-mode theory that produces the same approximate formulas for the transmission and reflection spectra. Numerical examples for diffraction of plane waves by periodic structures are presented to validate our theory.
