Nonlinear guided waves and symmetry breaking in left-handed waveguides

Abstract: We analyze nonlinear guided waves in a planar waveguide made of a left-handed material surrounded by a Kerr-like nonlinear dielectric. We predict that such a waveguide can support fast and slow symmetric and antisymmetric nonlinear modes. We study the symmetry breaking bifurcation and asymmetric modes in such a symmetric structure. We analyze nonlinear dispersion properties of the guided waves, and show that the modes can be both forward and backward.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure

In this case R = 0 (minimum) and T = 1 (maximum) for any frequency and for any angle of incidence (Figure 4).…”

“…The guidance characteristics of circular LHM rod waveguide including the dispersion properties and power confinement characteristics were studied [30]. Nonlinear waves guided by a LHM waveguide structure surrounded by a Kerr-like nonlinear dielectric was also investigated [31]. Due to the unusual properties of guided waves in LHMs, many potential applications were mentioned such as slab waveguide sensor [32][33][34][35][36][37][38] and bandpass filter [39].…”
