Numerical Analysis of Photonic Crystal Fiber of Ultra-High Birefringence And www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Numerical analysis of photonic crystal fber of ultra‑high birefringence and high nonlinearity Patrick Atsu Agbemabiese* & Emmanuel Kof Akowuah A numerical analysis of a hexagonal PCF structure with four circular air hole rings around the core has been presented in this paper. By utilizing a full vectorial fnite element method with perfectly matched layers, propagation properties such as birefringence, chromatic dispersion and confnement losses are numericaly evaluated for the proposed PCF structure. Specifcally, birefringence of 2.018 × ­10–2, nonlinear coefcients of 40.682 ­W−1 ­k m−1, negative chromatic dispersion of − 47.72 ps/km.nm at 1.55 µm and − 21 to − 105 ps/km.nm at the telecommunication band of C‑U have been reported. Photonic crystal fbers (PCFs) have outperformed its conventional step index fber counterpart. Tis is due to the fexibility in the design of the structure, the material used and application. PCFs referred to as microstructures or holey fbers have received growing interest in recent years. Tey are classifed into two categories according to its light guiding mechanism; photonic band gap guiding and refractive index guiding which is based on total internal refection. Both band gap and index guiding PCFs have claddings which consist of air holes, although they difer in the structure of the core1,2. In Solid core PCfs, the refractive index contrast is achieved by the arrangement of air holes in the cladding3. PCFs have a range of degrees of freedom and design fexibility to control optical properties such as endless single mode4, high birefringence5, chromatic dispersion management6, large mode area7, high nonlinearity 8 and low confnement loss 9. Tese properties open the door for a lot of applications like; nonlinear optics10, sensing1, high power technology11 and telecommunications12,13. Te optical properties can be achieved through optimisation of air hole shape, size and position14–17. Birefringence is generally categorized into two; these are geometrical birefringence and stress birefringence18,19. Optical fbers are doped in order to increase the refractive index, change the melting properties and induce birefringence1. High Birefringence is required to keep two linear orthogonal polarisation states over long dis- tance. High birefringent PCFs are highly sensitive to temperature, a characteristic which is important in sensing applications20. Dispersion is a measure of the temporal broadening of the optical pulse and it is one of the main sources of penalty for efcient transmission of optical signals. A PCF of high Birefringence and negative dispersion com- pensation is important in optical amplifcation as it maintains linear polarisation and useful for double Raman gains and sensing21. Furthermore, research has shown that achieving high birefringence, high nonlinearity and negative dispersion can be useful for polarization control in fber optic sensors, telecommunication applica- tions and broadband dispersion compensation in high-bit-rate transmission systems 22. A lot of work has been reported recently to achieve high birefringence, high nonlinearity and dispersion management through the use of elliptical holes around the core 23,24, using diferent shapes of air holes other than circular in or around the core25–27, defective core21, doping the core with gas or liquid and hybrid cladding28,29, double cladding22, dual core photonic bandgap30, triangular lattice 31 and other shapes of air hole rings apart from the widely used hexagonal lattice32–35. Rhombic and elliptical hole PCFs have been presented26 to achieve birefringence (B) of 8 × ­10–3 and Confnement loss(CL) of 5 × ­10–4 dB/m at 1.55 µm. However chromatic dispersion, which plays a key role in opti- cal communication was not reported on by 26. Furthermore, fabrication of such structures are relatively difcult considering the complex designs rhombic desings present26. Tere are also reports of PCF structures combining circular and elliptical holes to achieve 36 B of 10 –3 and a CL of 10 −7 dB/m. Despite the impressive performance of the structures presented by36, the chromatic dispersion properties are not presented by the authors36. Similar to the strutctures presented by26, these structures are bulky, complex and ccostly to fabricate36. Tere is a growing interest in hybrid PCF structures which employ two or more lattice structures. One such example is presented by28, which consists of hexagonal and decagonal structures with fve air hole rings. Te structure reported CL of 8.13 × ­10−3 dB/m and B of 2.6 × ­10–2 with a very high negative compensation at 1.55 µm, which is similar to 37. In the PCF structure by 5,38 a very high B of 10 –3 at a low CL have was reported but elliptical Department of Computer Eng, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, Kumasi, Ghana. *email: [email protected] Scientifc Reports | (2020) 10:21182 | https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-020-77114-x 1 Vol.:(0123456789) www.nature.com/scientificreports/ Parameters Constants B1 0.69675 B2 0.408218 B3 0.890815 C1 4.67914826e-3 C2 1.35120631e-2 C3 97.9340025 Table 1. Values of sellmeier coefcients for background silica material. air holes incorporated in the core of the structures make fabrication difcult. A design with seven rectangular air holes located in the core has been presented in 27 with very low loss. However the fabrication of rectangular holes would be difcult. Paul et al.23, designed a PCF of square lattice with fve air hole rings made up of both circular and elliptical air holes. A very high value of dispersion compensation (DC) and a high B of 4.74 × ­10–3 has been achieved however, owing to the number of elliptical holes present in the design, the fabrication of the structure would be difcult. Another high B in the order of 10–2 and very large negative dispersion is presented in24,39,40 but, the structure contains elliptical holes around the core which increases fabrication difculty. A dual concentrated core with fve layer air hole ring has been presented with high DC and low CL of 10 −4 dB/m but no birefringence results were shown. In21, seven rings of square lattice structure of circular air holes was proposed. A high B of the order of 10–2 was obtained with negative chromatic dispersion. Furthermore, Arif et al. 5 demonstrated a nonlinearity of 39.330 W−1 km−1 but with a low B of 2.83 × ­10–3. In22, high B of 3.12 × ­10–2, nonlinearity of 24.89 W−1 km−1 and high negative dispersion has been proposed however the nonlinearity is low and the structure is complex and fabrication would be a challenge. It has also been demonstrated in41 that nonlinearity of 26.67 W−1 km−1 can be achieved at a pump wavelength of 1.3 µm. Bored core PCF reported in 42, achieved a nonlinearity of 118.4 W−1 km-−1 and a negative dispersion value of − 2221 ps/km.nm but the birefringence (B) was not discussed. It is clear from the aforementioned research works that it is very difcult to simultaneously achieve excellent birefringence, chromatic dispersion and nonlinear coefcient for a given PCF structure. Tis paper presents a proposed PCF structure with ultra-high B of 2.018 × ­10–2 and nonlinear coefcients of 40.72w−1 km−1 at 1.55 µm. Chromatic dispersion of − 47.7 ps/km.nm at 1.55 µm has been demonstrated. Our proposed PCF structure with high B and high nonlinearity within optical communication wavelengths is very desirable in high bit rate data communication, polarization maintaining and sensing applications. Design methodology Refractive index of pure silica is dependent on the wavelength, and for this structure, SellMeier equation43 used: B 2 B 2 B 2 2 1 1 2 3 n = + 2 + 2 + 2 (1) − c1 − c2 − c3 where n is the refractive index of the silica and λ is the wavelength in µm. B 1,2,3 and C1,2,3 are SellMeier coef- fcients as shown in Table 1. In this paper in order to determine the optical properties of the PCF the cross section is segregated into subspaces where Maxwell equation are computed by determining the adjacent subspaces. Te vectorial Eq. (2) is determined using anisotropic PML14,44: −1 2 2 ∇× S ∇×E − k0n [S]E = 0 (2) where ko = 2π/λ is the wave number in vacuum, λ is the wavelength, E is the electric feld vector, n is the refrac- tive index of the domain, [s] is the PML matrix, [s]−1 is an inverse matrix of [s]. Dispersion is a key factor that reduces the information that the fber cable can carry. Te presence of disper- sion results in the spreading of the pulse creating intersymbol interference. Dispersion can categorised into two ,that is intermodal and intramodal dispersion. Intermodal occurs in multimode fbers while intermodal occurs in single mode fbers. Dispersion is made up of the material dispersion and waveguide dispersion Te chromatic dispersion is calculated with the formula1; 2 ∂ Re(neff ) D =− (3) c ∂2 where c, is the speed of light in free space and Re is the real value of the efective refractive index. Birefringence(B) is the diference in the refractive indices of the two polarisation modes. It is calculated as 45; B =|nx − ny| (4) where nx and ny are the efective refractive indices for x and y polarization modes respectively. Te confnement loss is calculated from the imaginary part of the efective refractive index.

The H-PCF design consists of an asymmetric core region, where one air hole is a reduced diameter and the air hole in its opposite vertex is omitted. The light-guiding properties of the proposed H-PCF structure were studied using the full-vector finite element method (FEM) with a circular perfectly matched layer (PML). The simulation results showed that the proposed H-PCF exhibits an ultrahigh birefringence of 3.87 × 10−2, a negative dispersion coefficient of −753.2 ps/(nm km), and a nonlinear coefficient of 96.51 W−1 km−1 at an excitation wavelength of 1550 nm. The major advantage of our H-PCF design is that it provides these desirable modal properties without using any non-circular air holes in the core and cladding region, thus making the fiber fabrication process much easier.

  • Recent Advances in Perfectly Matched Layers in Finite Element Applications
    Turk J Elec Engin, VOL.16, NO.1 2008, c TUB¨ ITAK˙ Recent Advances in Perfectly Matched Layers in Finite Element Applications Ozlem¨ OZG¨ UN¨ and Mustafa KUZUOGLU˘ Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Middle East Technical University 06531, Ankara-TURKEY Abstract We present a comparative evaluation of two novel and practical perfectly matched layer (PML) implementations to the problem of mesh truncation in the finite element method (FEM): locally-conformal PML,and multi-center PML techniques. The most distinguished feature of these methods is the simplicity and flexibility to design conformal PMLs over challenging geometries,especially those with curvature discontinuities,in a straightforward way without using artificial absorbers. These methods are based on specially- and locally-defined complex coordinate transformations inside the PML region. They can easily be implemented in a conventional FEM by just replacing the nodal coordinates inside the PML region by their complex counterparts obtained via complex coordinate transformation. After overviewing the theoretical bases of these methods,we present some numerical results in the context of two- and three-dimensional electromagnetic radiation/scattering problems. Key Words: Finite element method (FEM); perfectly matched layer (PML); locally-conformal PML; multi-center PML; complex coordinate stretching; electromagnetic scattering. 1. Introduction Perfectly matched layers (PMLs) have been popular in the finite element method (FEM) and the finite difference time domain method (FDTD) for solving the domain truncation problem in electromagnetic radiation and scattering problems.The PML approach is based on the truncation of computational domain by a reflectionless artificial layer which absorbs outgoing waves regardless of their frequency and angle of incidence.The main advantage of the PML is its close proximity and conformity to the surface of the radiator or scatterer, implying that the white space can be minimized.

One such boundary condition is known as the perfectly matched layer. In this thesis, the generation of perfectly matched layers for arbitrary convex geometric hexahedral meshes is discussed, using a method that can be implemented without differential operator based absorbing boundary conditions or coupling to boundary integral equations. A method for automated perfectly matched layer element generation is presented, with geometries based on surface projections from a convex mesh. Material parameters are generated via concepts from transformation electromagnetics, from complex-coordinate transformation based conformal PML’s in existing literature. A material parameter correction algorithm is also presented, based on a modified gradient descent optimization algorithm Numerical results are presented with comparison to analytical results and commercial software, with studies on the effects of discretization error of the effectiveness of the perfectly matched layer. Good agreement is found between simulated and analytical results, and between simulated results and commercial software. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am grateful most of all to my family, whose support and love through the years has brought me continued fortune in my education.

  • Time-Domain Modeling of Elastic and Acoustic Wave Propagation in Unbounded Media, with Application to Metamaterials
    Time-domain modeling of elastic and acoustic wave propagation in unbounded media, with application to metamaterials by Hisham Assi A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering collaborative program with the Institute of Biomaterial and Biomedical Engineering University of Toronto c Copyright 2016 by Hisham Assi Abstract Time-domain modeling of elastic and acoustic wave propagation in unbounded media, with application to metamaterials Hisham Assi Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering collaborative program with the Institute of Biomaterial and Biomedical Engineering University of Toronto 2016 Perfectly matched layers (PML) are a well-developed method for simulating wave propa- gation in unbounded media enabling the use of a reduced computational domain without having to worry about spurious boundary reflections. Many PML studies have been reported for both acoustic waves in fluids and elastic waves in solids. Nevertheless, further studies are needed for improvements in the fields of formulation, stability, and inhomogeneity of PMLs. This thesis introduces new second-order time-domain PML formulations for modeling mechanical wave propagation in unbounded solid, fluid, and coupled fluid-solid media. It also addresses certain stability issues, and demonstrates application of these formulations. Using a complex coordinate stretching approach a PML for the time-domain anisotropic elastic wave equation in two dimensional space is compactly formulated with two second- order equations along with only four auxiliary equations. This makes it smaller than existing formulations, thereby simplifying the problem and reducing the computational burden. A simple method is proposed for improving the stability of the discrete PML problem for a wide range of otherwise unstable anisotropic elastic media.

  • A Reflectionless Discrete Perfectly Matched Layer
    A Reflectionless Discrete Perfectly Matched Layer Albert Chern Institute of Mathematics, Technical University of Berlin, 10623 Berlin, Germany Abstract Perfectly Matched Layer (PML) is a widely adopted non-reflecting boundary treatment for wave simulations. Re- ducing numerical reflections from a discretized PML has been a long lasting challenge. This paper presents a new discrete PML for the multi-dimensional scalar wave equation which produces no numerical reflection at all. The reflectionless discrete PML is discovered through a straightforward derivation using Discrete Complex Analysis. The resulting PML takes an easily-implementable finite difference form with compact stencil. In practice, the discrete waves are damped exponentially in the PML, and the error due to domain truncation is maintained at machine zero by a moderately thick PML. The numerical stability of the proposed PML is also demonstrated. Keywords: Perfectly matched layers, absorbing boundary, discrete complex analysis, scalar wave equation 1. Introduction Perfectly Matched Layer (PML) [1–3] is a state-of-the-art numerical technique for absorbing waves at the boundary of a computation domain, highly demanded by simulators of wave propagations in free space. More precisely, PML is an artificial layer attached to the boundary where the wave equation is modified into a set of so-called PML equations. Requiring simulations only local in space and time, the layer effectively damps the waves while creating no reflection at the transitional interface (Fig.1). Although the reflectionless property is well established in the continuous theory, to the best knowledge all existing discretizations of PML equations still produce numerical reflections at the interface due to discretization error (see e.g.
