Slot Waveguide
PLASMON SLOT WAVEGUIDE DISPERSION The eigenmodes of planar multilayer structures may be solved via the vector wave equation under constraint of tan- gentialEand normalDfield continuity. Uniqueness of the results is guaranteed by the Helmholtz theorem. Silicon slot waveguide Bragg gratings have been designed, fabricated and the experimental data has been analyzed for its slow light properties. Slow light with a group index of 12.38 at a. One type of traditional waveguide slot array antenna utilizes narrow (in terms of wavelength) slots in the broad wall of the guide, as shown in Figure 1a. The high power-capable, large-slot array antenna concept is formed from a collection of large apertures in the broad wall of standard rectangular waveguide, as shown in Figure 1b.
The model analyses the mode propagation within a nano slot waveguide. In a slot waveguide configuration, two high refractive index slabs (~3.48) are placed adjacent to the low refractive index slot (~1.44). Mode analysis was performed on a 2D cross section of a slot waveguide for an operating wavelength of 1.55[um]. Further analysis was carried out to optimize the width of the slot to deliver maximum optical power and optical intensity through the slot area.
