أعرضت النتائج الطيفية والطاقية والزمنية للإشعاع في حالة تأثير اللهب الفوتوني. وضعت الأوبال الصناعية على لوحة الكوبريون عند درجة حرارة نقطة غليان الثلج المذاب (77 درجة كلورسيوس) وتشعلت ببالغ الطول بالإشعاع الليزري الروبي النانوثانية، وظهرت الإشعاعات اللامينسينسية المرئية مع التأخير الزمني في عينات أخرى من الأوبال الصناعية الموضوعة على نفس اللوحة. وفي حالة وضع السائل الغير الخطي داخل الأوبال، فإن الحد الأدنى للإشعاع اللامينسينسي المرئي تقلص وتتغير توزيع المنطقة المشعة على سطح الأوبال. وفي حالة وضع السوائل الغير الخطية المجمدة على لوحة الكوبريون، ظهرت الإشعاعات اللامينسينسية الزرقاء المشعة بالطول البالغ في السوائل المجمدة. وكانت الخصائص الزمنية لهذه الإشعاعات تقريبا متشابهة مع ماتريس الأوبال.
The results of the spectral, energetical and temporal characteristics of radiation in the presence of the photonic flame effect are presented. Artificial opal posed on Cu plate at the temperature of liquid nitrogen boiling point (77 K) being irradiated by nanosecond ruby laser pulse produces long- term luminiscence with a duration till ten seconds with a finely structured spectrum in the the antistocks part of the spectrum. Analogous visible luminescence manifesting time delay appeared in other samples of the artificial opals posed on the same plate. In the case of the opal infiltrated with different nonlinear liquids the threshold of the luminiscence is reduced and the spatial disribution of the bright emmiting area on the opal surface is being changed. In the case of the putting the frozen nonlinear liquids on the Cu plate long-term blue bright luminiscence took place in the frozen species of the liquids. Temporal characteristics of this luminiscence are nearly the same as in opal matrixes.
We observed new effect which we called photonic flame effect (PFE). Several 3-dimensional photonic crystals (artificial opals) were posed on Cu plate at the temperature of liquid nitrogen (77K). Typical distance between them was 1-5 centimeters. Long-continued optical luminescence was excited in one of them by the ruby laser pulse. Analogous visible luminescence manifesting time delay appeared in other samples of the crystals. Experiments were realized for opal crystals and for nanocomposites (opals filled with nonlinear liquids).
Novel nonlinear optical phenomena - photonic flame effect (PFE) and stimulated globular scattering (SGS) are discussed.PFE consisted in the appearance of the few seconds duration emission in blue-green spectral range under 20 ns ruby laser pulse excitation and simultaneous excitation of several spatially separated synthetic opal crystalls situated on the Cu plate. SGS was observed both in forward and backward directions. Spectral and energetical SGS characteristics were measured.
At the exit surface of a photonic crystal, the intensity of the diffracted wave can be periodically modulated, showing a maximum in the positive (forward diffracted) or in the negative (diffracted) direction, depending on the slab thickness. This thickness dependence is a direct result of the so-called Pendellosung phenomenon, consisting of the periodic exchange inside the crystal of the energy between direct and diffracted beams. We report the experimental observation of this effect in the microwave region at about 14 GHz by irradiating 2D photonic crystal slabs of different thickness and detecting the intensity distribution of the electromagnetic field at the exit surface and inside the crystal itself.
We experimentally realize a photonic analogue of the anomalous quantum Hall insulator using a two-dimensional (2D) array of coupled ring resonators. Similar to the Haldane model, our 2D array is translation invariant, has zero net gauge flux threading the lattice, and exploits next-nearest neighbor couplings to achieve a topologically non-trivial bandgap. Using direct imaging and on-chip transmission measurements, we show that the bandgap hosts topologically robust edge states. We demonstrate a topological phase transition to a conventional insulator by frequency detuning the ring resonators and thereby breaking the inversion symmetry of the lattice. Furthermore, the clockwise or the counter-clockwise circulation of photons in the ring resonators constitutes a pseudospin degree of freedom. We show that the two pseudospins acquire opposite hopping phases and their respective edge states propagate in opposite directions. These results are promising for the development of robust reconfigurable integrated nanophotonic devices for applications in classical and quantum information processing.
Based on the recently proposed concept of effective gauge potential and magnetic field for photons, we numerically demonstrate a photonic de Haas-van Alphen effect. We show that in a dynamically modulated photonic resonator lattice exhibiting an effect magnetic field, the trajectories of the light beam at a given frequency have the same shape as the constant energy contour for the photonic band structure of the lattice in the absence of the effective magnetic field.
