Design and Optimization of Nano-Optical Isolators Based on Irregular Arrangements of Dielectric Rods

2022-01-01
Design and optimization of efficient and compact nano-optical isolators based on irregular arrays of dielectric rods are presented. These designs allow electromagnetic waves to propagate in single direction and prevent them from propagating in the opposite direction. This way, high forward transmission is achieved, while the main source is protected from reflected waves. Effective optimization algorithms are integrated with the multilevel fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA), a fast and accurate full-wave numerical solver, to design efficient isolators composed of different arrangements of dielectric elements with controlled forward and backward transmissions.

Design and evaluation of V-shaped arrays for 2-D DOA estimation
Filik, Tansu; Tuncer, Temel Engin (2008-04-04)
A new method for optimum design of V-shaped arrays is presented for azimuth and elevation angle estimation simultaneously. The design criterion is based on the Cramer-Rao Bound (CRB) for joint estimation where the coupling effect between the azimuth and elevation direction of arrival (DOA) angles is taken into account. The design method finds an optimum angle between the linear sub-arrays of the V-array. The computation of the optimum angle is simple due to the monotonic characteristics of the best and wors...
Design of Compact Nano-Optical Couplers Involving Dielectric Nanorods
Karaosmanoglu, Bariscan; Yazar, Sirin; Ergül, Özgür Salih (2018-06-01)
We present optimization and design of nano-optical couplers involving dielectric nanorods. Using tens of elements, optimal array configurations are found to produce alternative responses that can be digitized. For realistic simulations, the couplers are modeled as three-dimensional structures and analyzed via surface integral equations and the multilevel fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA). Initial results are presented demonstrate the feasibility of compact but effective couplers with desired responses.

Design of pattern reconfigurable antennas by using characteristic mode theory
Aydın, Tolunay; Alatan, Lale; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2020-10-22)
Pattern reconfigurable antennas improve the performance of the system in applications which have dynamic radiation pattern requirements like multi- input multi-output arrays, phased arrays and body area networks. Characteristic mode theory was shown to be useful when investigating the possible orthogonal radiation patterns on an antenna element. Due to improvements in computation capacity of the modern computers, characteristic mode analysis can be used efficiently during the design of pattern reconfigurabl...
