Expanding RCWA capabilities with advanced S-matrix algorithms

Philippe Lalanne, Jean-Paul Hugonin

Modal methods are particularly well suited to layered photonic structures because electromagnetic propagation within each layer is described analytically. Here, we introduce a simp…

Mapping Complex Mode Volumes with Cavity Perturbation Theory

K. G. Cognee, W. Yan, F. La China +5

Microcavities and nanoresonators are characterized by their quality factors Q and mode volumes V. While Q is unambiguously defined, there are still questions on V and in particular…

On the attenuation coefficient of monomode periodic waveguides

Alexandre Baron, Simon Mazoyer, Wojciech Smigaj +1

It is widely accepted that, on ensemble average, the transmission T of guided modes decays exponentially with the waveguide length L due to small imperfections, leading to the impo…

A microscopic view of the electromagnetic properties of sub-wavelength metallic surfaces

P. Lalanne, J. P. Hugonin, H. T. Liu +1

We review the properties of the surface waves that are scattered by two-dimensional sub-wavelength indentations on metallic surfaces. We show that two distinct waves are involved,…

Difference between penetration and damping lengths in photonic crystal mirrors

C. Sauvan, J. P. Hugonin, P. Lalanne

Different mirror geometries in two-dimensional photonic crystal slabs are studied with fully-vectorial calculations. We compare their optical properties and, in particular, we show…
