Science Letters: Lattice type transmission line of negative refractive index

In this letter, we introduce a novel passive transmission line of negative refractive index (i.e., left-handedness) based on identical symmetrical lattice type structures [thus called "lattice type transmission line" (LT-TL)]. The dispersion characteristic and the transmission response of the proposed LT-TL are analyzed. While all the other left-handed passive transmission lines are of high pass, the present passive left-handed transmission line is of low pass. Compared with a conventional transmission line, the LT-TL has a phase shift of 180° in the entire wide pass-band.

一维光子晶体中多负折射率缺陷导致的缺陷模

利用传输矩阵方法研究了多个周期性分布的负折射率缺陷的一维光子晶体的透射谱.以32个周期的1/4波堆存在5个负折射率缺陷的光子晶体为例进行了数值计算.结果表明:在带隙中产生多个缺陷模,这些缺陷模的分布依赖于缺陷在晶体中的分布.当缺陷密集时,缺陷耦合较强,缺陷模相距较远;当缺陷稀疏时,缺陷耦合较弱,缺陷模相距较近,分立的缺陷模趋于简并,由此形成一个很窄的通带.与正折射率缺陷情形相比较,负折射率缺陷间的相互作用对缺陷模的影响更大,缺陷模谱线也更宽.     

Bragg reflectors based on alternate RHTL-LHTL structures

INTRODUCTION Left-handed materials (LHMs) with negative permittivity and negative permeability, first theo- retically investigated by Veselago (1968), have at- tracted much interest in the past few years (Smith et al., 2000; Pendry, 2000). Such materials were first implemented using a structure which combined pe- riodic arrays of metallic lines and split ring resonators (SRRs) (Shelby et al., 2001). Since then much work has been dedicated to fabricating such materials. These new artif…     

A sensorless and simple controller for VSC based HVDC systems

Voltage source converter high-voltage direct current （VSC-HVDC） is a new power transmission technology pref- erable in small or medium power transmission. In this paper we discuss a new control system based on space vector modulation （SVM） without any voltage line sensors. Using direct power control （DPC） SVM and a new double synchronous reference frame phase-locked loop （DSRF-PLL） approach, the control system is resistant to the majority of line voltage disturbances. Also, the system response has accelerated by using a feed forward power decoupled loop. The operation of this control strategy was verified in a SIMULINK/MATLAB simulation environment. To validate this control system, a 5 kV.A prototype system was constructed. Compared to the original controllers, the current total harmonic distortion （THD）, the active and reactive deviations and the DC voltage overshoot were lowered by 2.5%, 6.2% and 8%, respectively. The rectifier power factor in the worst condition was 0.93 and the DC voltage settling time was 0.2 s.

Image Distortion of Optical Coherence Tomography

A kind of image distortion in Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) resulted from average refractive index changes between structures of bio-tissue is discussed for the first time. Analysis is given on following situations:1) Exact refraction index changes between mierostruetures;2)The gradient of average refractive index change between different tissue layers is parallel to the probe beam;3) The gradient of average refractive index change is vertical to the probe beam. The results show that the image distortion of situation 1) is usually negligible ;in situation 2) there is a spread or shrink effect without relative location error; however, in situation 3)there is a significant image error inducing relative location displacement between different structures. Preliminary design to eliminate the distortion is presented, the method of which mainly based on the image classification and pixel array re-arrangement.

光子晶体滤波器的滤波品质调制因素研究

利用传输矩阵法理论,通过数值计算模拟的方法,研究各种结构参数对光子晶体滤波器滤波品质的调制机制,结果表明:对于双正介质光子晶体,当光子晶体或光子晶体量子阱的排列周期数越大,或基元介质高折射率介质的折射率越大,光子晶体滤波器的滤波品质越高;对于单负介质光子晶体,当光子晶体介质层厚度越大,光子晶体滤波器滤波品质也越高;当双正介质光子晶体的介质换成双负介质时,光子晶体滤波器的滤波品质会降低,但随着双负介质折射率的负值增加,滤波品质会上升。光子晶体或光子晶体量子阱结构参数对滤波器品质的调制机制,为设计光子晶体滤波器以及形成其有效调制机制提供理论参考。

Broad-bandwidth and low-loss metamaterials： theory, design and realization

In this paper, we summarize some recent activities in the field of metamaterial research at the National University of Singapore （NUS）. Integral equations are applied for electromagnetic modelling of supernatural materials. Some special characteristics of the metamaterials are shown. Moreover, quasi-static Lorentz theory and numerical method （i.e., the method of moments for solving the electric field integral equation） and the transmission line theory are both presented to obtain the effective constitutive relations of metamaterials, respectively. Finally, feasibility of fabricating metamaterials based on analysis of equivalent transmission line model in the microwave spectrum and even higher is also shown and correspondingly some broad-bandwidth and low-loss metamaterial structures are designed and synthesized.     

单轴孪晶界面上的最大负折射角

Using the Maxwell's equations,we carry out theoretical analysis on the maximum incident and refractive angles at which negative refraction can be realized at the interfaces associated with conventional uniaxial media.In the numerical analysis,the largest incident and refractive angles at which refraction arises are obtained by optimizing directions of the optical axis of the uniaxial bicrystal.Meanwhile,the optical parameters of the ordinary uniaxial bicrystals (including homogeneity- junction and heterogeneity-junction) are given,and some representative laser wavelengths,the largest incident and refractive angles are obtained.The relation between the largest incident angles (or refractive angles) and refractive index is also discussed.     

Review:Broad-bandwidth and low-loss metamaterials:theory, design and realization

INTRODUCTION Conventional materials have positive magnetic permeability and mostly positive electrical permittiv- ity. Veselago (1968) initially assumed a material with negative permittivity and permeability simultane- ously and theoretically demonstrated the abnormal electromagnetic properties. This material, referred to as left-handed material (LHM) or metamaterial, re- verses a basic feature of light, such as, the reversal of the Doppler shift for radiation, and negative refractive in…

INTRODUCTION Wave propagation in a material with negative magnetic permeability and negative electric permit- tivity was first theoretically analyzed by Veselago (1968). In such a left-handed material (LHM), the electric field E, the magnetic field H and the wave vector k of electromagnetic wave propagation obey the left-hand rule (instead of the right-hand rule for usual materials). After Smith et al.(2000) demon- strated simultaneously negative permeability and permittivity, using cop…
