Investigation of resonant modes in thin microcavities by using electromagnetic theory.

A biharmonic differential equation for 3D thin microcavities with uniform thickness is investigated by use of electromagnetic theory, whose exact solution is determined to govern the electromagnetic field distribution inside the thin microcavities. The resonant field patterns of a thin microdisk and thin rectangular microcavity are obtained accordingly. The governing equation can be verified by comparing the results of the thin microdisk presented with the approximate ones in the literature. The fourth-order partial differential equation and its exact solution should be useful in possible applications of the thin microcavities for optical resonators in laser optics and optical devices.

Exact solution of resonant modes in a rectangular resonator.

The resonant modes of rectangular two-dimensional optical resonators were analyzed exactly. Based on the characteristics of the Bessel function, the resonant frequencies of the rectangular microcavities are expressed in a simple way. In addition, a simple rule to judge when the finite length of a rectangular resonator can be considered infinite is given in realistic applications. The solution that is presented should be useful in possible applications of the rectangular resonators as filters for dense wavelength-division multiplexing.

Chaotic dynamics of a passively mode-locked soliton fiber ring laser.

We report on the experimental and numerical studies of the chaotic dynamics of a soliton fiber ring laser passively mode-locked by using the nonlinear polarization rotation (NPR) technique. Period-doubling route to chaos on the soliton repetition rate of either the single pulse soliton or the bound solitons of the laser was experimentally observed. Based on a coupled complex Ginzburg-Landau equation model and also taking into account the laser cavity effect, we further show numerically that the period-doubling bifurcations and route to chaos are intrinsic properties of the laser, whose appearance is independent of the details of the laser cavity design and the laser soliton operation. Property of the solitons under the dynamical bifurcations is also numerically investigated.
