Direct measurement of second-order coupling in a waveguide lattice
Open accessAbstract
We measure the next-nearest-neighbour coupling in an array of coupled optical waveguides directly via an integrated eigenmode interferometer. In contrast to light propagation experiments, the technique is insensitive to nearest-neighbour dynamics. Our results show that second-order coupling in a linear configuration can be suppressed well below the level expected from the exponential decay of the guided modes.

This observation is fully consistent with another recent experiment, where a suppression of next-nearest-neighbour coupling in a three-site link has been measured directly.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
