Simulation of bended planar waveguides for optical bus-couplers

Lorenz, Lukas, Nieweglowski, Krzysztof, Wolter, Klaus-Jürgen, Bock, Karlheinz 08 August 2019 (has links)
In our work an optical bus-coupler is proposed, which enables easy bidirectional connection between two waveguides without interrupting the bus using a core-to-core coupling principle. With bended waveguides the coupling ratio can be tuned by adjusting the overlap area of the two cores. In order to ensure large overlap areas at short coupling lengths, the waveguides have rectangular cross sections. To examine the feasibility of this coupling concept a simulation was performed, which is presented in this paper. Due to multimode waveguides, used in short range data communication, a non-sequential ray tracing simulation is reasonable. Simulations revealed that the bending of the waveguide causes a redistribution of the energy within the core. Small radii push the main energy to the outer region of the core increasing the coupling efficiency. On the other hand, at excessive lowered bend radii additional losses occur (due to a coupling into the cladding), which is why an optimum has to be found. Based on the simulation results it is possible to derive requirements and design rules for the coupling element.

Réflectométrie optique dans le domaine fréquentiel pour l’analyse des réseaux locaux domestiques optiques / Optical frequency domain reflectometry for the characterization of domestic optical home network

Fall, Abdoulaye 14 June 2016 (has links)
Le projet FUI12 RLDO – dans le cadre duquel s’inscrit cette thèse – préconise une solution de réseau de topologie en étoile passive pour la montée en débit des réseaux domestiques. Cette solution de réseau rencontre des difficultés dans son implémentation avec la non-uniformité des puissances des ports de sortie des coupleurs multimodes. L’analyse de ce point nous a permis de comprendre que les propriétés des modes de propagation dans les éléments du réseau jouent un rôle clé dans les problèmes rencontrés. Pour caractériser la propagation dans le réseau, nous avons développé un banc de réflectométrie optique complexe dans le domaine fréquentiel. Les phénomènes limitant la sensibilité à la phase – liés en particulier à la non-linéarité du balayage en fréquence de la source laser – sont étudiés pour contribuer à une meilleure compréhension des mécanismes. Puis les performances de la mesure en intensité et en phase de l’instrument que nous avons mis en place sont testées. Nous avons aussi étudié les conditions de résolution optimales pour caractériser les modes d’un guide multimode et analysé l’incertitude sur la dispersion chromatique dans le cas où il est impossible de déterminer si on a accès à un mode ou plusieurs modes dans un diagramme de dispersion donné. Nous introduisons par la suite une méthode d’analyse temps-fréquence adaptative, permettant d’obtenir les courbes de dispersions avec une résolution optimale. Cette méthode nous a permis de montrer le caractère quasi-monomode, en condition d’excitation monomode, de la fibre multimode spéciale RLDO à 1310 nm et à 1550 nm. L’analyse de la propagation dans les fibres optiques, associée au modèle que nous avons développé pour comprendre le fonctionnement des coupleurs multimodes, a permis d’expliquer les difficultés rencontré avec les premières expérimentations de la topologie de réseau en étoile passive multimode et d’envisager des pistes de réalisation d’un prototype de réseau fonctionnel / In order to develop high capacity future-proof home network, the FUI 12 RLDO project suggests passive star network topology using multimode couplers. This topology encounters implementation difficulties due to the non-uniformity of the power distribution in the output ports of multimode couplers. Analyzing this problem shows that the properties of modes propagating in the network elements plays a key role in this non-uniform characteristics of multimode couplers. In order to characterize these modes propagating in the network, we have developed a complex optical frequency domain reflectometry (OFDR) setup. The phenomena limiting the sensitivity to the phase in OFDR – in fact, those related to the non-linear frequency tuning of the laser source - are investigated to contribute to a better understanding of the limiting mechanisms. Then we have tested the intensity and phase measurement performance of the developed setup. Later, we studied the optimal resolution conditions to characterize the modes in a multimode waveguide. We have also analyzed the uncertainty of the measurement of the chromatic dispersion of modes in case where it is impossible to determine whether one or several modes are present in a given dispersion curve. Additionally, we have introduced an adaptive time-frequency method, to obtain the dispersion curves with optimal resolution. This method allows us to show the versatility of the special RLDO multimode fiber (single-mode behavior under single-mode excitation at 1310 nm and 1550 nm). The analysis of the propagation in the optical fibers, associated with a model we have developed to study the behavior of multimode couplers, has permitted to explain encountered difficulties with the experiments of the multimode passive star network topology. This also gives insights to develop a functional prototype of network

[pt] APLICAÇÃO DO MÉTODO DO CASAMENTO DE MODOS NA ANÁLISE E NO PROJETO DE ESTRUTURAS COAXIAIS / [en] APPLICATION OF MODE MATCHING TECHNIQUE IN THE ANALYSIS AND PROJECT OF COAXIAL STRUCTURES

SANDRO ROGERIO ZANG 28 December 2005 (has links)
[pt] Neste presente trabalho, o Método do Casamento de Modos é aplicado na análise e no projeto de estruturas coaxiais. A estrutura de excitação é um dos pontos críticos do projeto de antenas do tipo discone quando se pretende explorar suas características de banda larga. Seções não uniformes de guias de ondas coaxiais são usualmente utilizadas como elementos dessa estrutura de excitação sendo, eventualmente, necessária a inclusão de anéis dielétricos para garantir a rigidez mecânica da antena. Devido a essas não uniformidades encontradas nas dimensões e no meio dielétrico desse dispositivo de microondas, métodos numéricos serão utilizados na predição do seu comportamento eletromagnético. O correto dimensionamento desses anéis e das descontinuidades de guias de onda coaxiais que compõe a estrutura de alimentação, permite estabelecer um compromisso entre minimização das perdas, alargamento da banda passante e rigidez mecânica. Associados ao Método do Casamento de Modos serão utilizados algoritmos de otimização que farão o ajuste das dimensões dessas seções de guias de onda coaxiais não uniformes, visando à minimização da perda de retorno e o aumento da banda de operação da antena. Finalmente, será feito o estudo de algumas estruturas de excitação, onde serão otimizados seus desempenhos para a perda de retorno. / [en] In this present work, the Mode Matching technique is applied in the analysis and project of coaxial structures. The feed junction is one of the critical points of the project of discone antennas when broadband performance is expected. Usually, these junctions are composed of nonuniform sections of coaxial waveguide and, to guarantee the necessary mechanical rigidity of the structure, some sections are filled with dielectric material. The project of these feed junctions requires a compromise between frequency band, compact structure, minimal losses, and mechanical rigidity. Due to the discontinuities, numerical methods are used to predict the electromagnetic behavior. Here, Mode Matching technique associated with an optimization algorithm is employed in the adjustment of the dimensions of the coaxial waveguide sections, seeking the minimization of the return loss and the enlargement of the antenna bandwidth. Several types of junctions are explored and their performance is compared.

Etude du guidage et du confinement de la lumière dans les guides optiques nanostructurés : application au filtrage spectral ultra-sélectif / Guiding and confinement of light inside nanostructured optical waveguides : application to the ultra selective spectral filtering

Rassem, Nadège 20 January 2017 (has links)
Un CRIGF (pour Cavity Resonator Integrated Grating Filter) est un filtre spectral nanophotonique présentant une bande passante étroite (inférieure au nanomètre) fonctionnant avec un faisceau relativement focalisé. Cette structure, introduite récemment (2010), est composée d'un réseau à résonance de mode guidé (ou réseau résonnant, ou encore réseau coupleur) inséré entre deux réseaux de Bragg. Les réseaux à résonance de mode guidé sont connus pour présenter dans leur spectre en réflexion (ou transmission) des pics très étroits, dus à l'excitation, via un ordre de diffraction, d'un mode guidé de la structure. Ce phénomène de résonance correspond à une anomalie de Wood. Mais leur majeure limitation reste leur très faible tolérance angulaire, et le CRIGF permet de lever ce problème.Dans la littérature, numériquement le CRIGF a été modélisée par la FDTD seulement avec d’importants temps de calculs. Nous avons utilisé la RCWA pour modéliser numériquement le CRIGF en apportant une possibilité de recherche des modes propres. Nous avons surtout montré grâce aux calculs que le comportement angulaire extraordinaire du CRIGF est très différent de celui des réseaux infinis. Nous avons prouvé grâce à la théorie des modes couplés étendue à quatre modes que cette large tolérance angulaire est due à l'existence d'un couplage additionnel qui n’existait pas dans les réseaux infinis. Grâce à une approche basée sur la cavité de Fabry-Pérot, nous avons confirmé que le CRIGF se comporte comme une cavité de Fabry-Pérot à pertes, ce qui nous a permis de définir des règles de conception simples comme le contrôle de la largeur spectrale et le repositionnement de la longueur d’onde de centrage / A CRIGF (Cavity Resonator Integrated Grating Filter) is a nanophotonic spectral filter with a narrow bandwidth (less than a nanometer) using a relatively focused beam. This structure, introduced recently (2010), is composed of a guided mode resonance grating filter (or resonant grating, or coupler grating) inserted between two Bragg gratings. Guided mode resonance gratings are known to exhibit very narrow peaks in their reflection spectrum (or transmission), due to the excitation of one guided mode of the structure via one diffraction order. This resonance phenomenon corresponds to an anomaly of Wood. But their major limitation remains their very low angular tolerance, and the CRIGF allows to overpass this problem.In literature, the numerical modeling of CRIGF was done only by FDTD with an important calculations time. We have used RCWA to model numerically the CRIGF by bringing a possibility of research of the eigen-modes. We have mainly shown thanks to calculations the extraordinary angular behavior of the CRIGF is very different from that of infinite gratings. We have proved thanks to the coupled modes theory extended to four modes that this large angular tolerance is due to an additional coupling that did not occur in infinite gratings.With an approach based on the Fabry-Perot cavity, we confirmed that the CRIGF behaves as a lossy Fabry-Perot cavity, which allowed us to define simple design rules such as the control of the spectral width and tuning the centering wavelength.
