Photonic realization of the relativistic Kronig-Penney model and relativistic Tamm surface states

Open access
Longhi, Stefano·2011·Open Physics

Abstract

Photonic analogues of the relativistic Kronig-Penney model and of relativistic surface Tamm states are proposed for light propagation in fibre Bragg gratings (FBGs) with phase defects. A periodic sequence of phase slips in the FBG realizes the relativistic Kronig-Penney model, the band structure of which being mapped into the spectral response of the FBG. For the semi-infinite FBG Tamm surface states can appear and can be visualized as narrow resonance peaks in the transmission spectrum of the grating.

  • Several recent works have shown that optical structures in media with a complex refractive index can provide an experimentally accessible test bed to simulate in a purely classical setting non-Hermitian features rooted in the non-relativistic Schrödinger equation with a complex potential.

    “Several recent works have shown that optical structures in media with a complex refractive index can provide an experimentally accessible test bed to simulate in a purely classical setting non-Hermitian features rooted in the non-relativistic Schr¨ odinger equation with a complex potential [91,92,90,93,94,95,96].”

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.
