Non-reciprocal emissivity, partial coherence, and amplification of internal energy from photon recycling when thermal radiation is sourced within matter

Geoff B Smith, Angus R Gentle, Matthew D Arnold

Photons excited into ground state modes at finite temperature display partitioning among photon phases, lifetimes and distances travelled since creation. These distributions set th…

Noise in Brillouin Based Information Storage

Oscar A. Nieves, Matthew D. Arnold, Mikołaj K. Schmidt +2

We theoretically and numerically study the efficiency of Brillouin-based opto-acoustic data storage in a photonic waveguide in the presence of thermal noise and laser phase noise.…

The Stefan-Boltzmann constant re-visited for photons thermally generated within matter

G. B. Smith, A. R. Gentle, M. D. Arnold

The Stefan-Boltzmann constant arose from photon densities inside a cavity, but inside matter photon mode densities are material specific. Photon speeds are governed by the mode the…

Numerical Simulation of Noise in Pulsed Brillouin Scattering

Oscar A. Nieves, Matthew D. Arnold, Michael J. Steel +2

We present a numerical method for modelling noise in Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS). The model applies to dynamic cases such as optical pulses, and accounts for both thermal…

Noise and Pulse Dynamics in Backward Stimulated Brillouin Scattering

Oscar A. Nieves, Matthew D. Arnold, M. J. Steel +2

We theoretically and numerically study the effects of thermal noise on pulses in backwards Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS). Using a combination of stochastic calculus and num…

Effective transport properties of conformal Voronoi-bounded columns via recurrent boundary element expansions

Matthew D. Arnold

Effective transport properties of heterogeneous structures are predicted by geometric microstructural parameters, but these can be difficult to calculate. Here, a boundary element…
