We propose and analyze novel surface-state-based waveguides in bandgap photonic crystals. We discuss surface mode band structure, field localization and effect of imperfections on the waveguiding properties of the surface modes. We…
We consider a quantum particle in a waveguide which consists of an infinite straight Dirichlet strip divided by a thin semitransparent barrier on a line parallel to the walls which is modeled by a $\delta$ potential. We show that if the…
We outline specific features of numerical simulations of metamaterial wedges and interfaces. We study the effect of different positioning of a grid in the Yee method, which is necessary to obtain consistent convergence in modeling of…
Photonic crystals with a finite size can support surface modes when appropriately terminated. We calculate the dispersion curves of surface modes for different terminations using the plane wave expansion method. These non-radiative surface…
We consider the propagation of acoustic waves at a given wavenumber in a waveguide which is unbounded in one direction. We explain how to construct penetrable obstacles characterized by a physical coefficient $\rho$ which are invisible in…
Hard surfaces or magnetic surfaces can be used to propagate quasi-TEM modes inside closed waveguides. The interesting feature of these modes is an almost uniform field distribution inside the waveguide. But the mechanisms governing how…
A dynamical effect of coherent backscattering is predicted theoretically and supported by computer simulations: The distribution of single-mode delay times of waves reflected by a disordered waveguide depends on whether the incident and…
We investigate symmetry-selective surface-mode excitation in a general periodically time-modulated double-layer system, where the modulation of the two layers has a constant phase difference. By deriving a semi-analytic trans-fer matrix…
We extend the generalize conservation law of light propagating in a one-dimensional $\cal PT$-symmetric system, i.e., $|T-1|=\sqrt{R_LR_R}$ for the transmittance $T$ and the reflectance $R_{L,R}$ from the left and right, to a multimode…
The linear and nonlinear surface waves propagating along the interface separating isotropic conventional and uniaxially anisotropic left-handed materials is investigated. The conditions of the existence of surface TM-modes is determined. It…
We present an explicit numerical scheme to solve the variable coefficient wave equation in one space dimension with minimal restrictions on the coefficient and initial data.
The low-frequency profiles of some pulsars manifest temporal broadening due to scattering, usually accompanied by flat polarization position angle (PA) curves. Assuming that the scattering works on the 4 Stokes parameters in the same way,…
This paper investigates the propagation characteristics of circular waveguides whose interior surface is coated with a thin metamaterial liner possessing dispersive, negative, and near-zero permittivity. A field analysis of this system…
Examining cables using many conductor transmission line theory has shed light on the modes supported by various cable types. However, so far the theory disregards the fundamental surface wave mode whose lateral confinement increases with…
We study wave scattering by a finite transversal strip in a discrete square-lattice waveguide with Dirichlet boundary conditions imposed on the strip and the waveguide walls. The setting is motivated as a discrete analogue of the classical…
In this work we study the wave scattering by small dispersionless particles with pulsating refractive index. The scattered fields and their resonance frequencies are calculated by using scalar approximation and exponentially time-dependent…
Metasurfaces provide unique capability in guiding surface waves and controlling their polarization and dispersion properties. One way to do that is by analyzing their equifrequency contours. Equifrequency contours are the 2D projection of…
The spontaneous decay of a V-type three-level atom placed in a negative-refractive-index waveguide is analyzed. We find that in thin waveguides, highly efficient surface guided modes are supported, which do not occur in positive index…
We theoretically investigate the quantum scattering of a single-photon pulse interacting with an ensemble of $\Lambda$-type three-level atoms coupled to a one-dimensional waveguide. With an effective non-Hermitian Hamiltonian, we study the…
We study the surface modes of a homogeneous spherical gain medium and provide a comprehensive analytic treatment of a special class of these modes that support spectral singularities. Because the latter have a divergent quality factor, we…
