Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Linear Variable Optical Attenuators With Shaped-Finger Comb-Drive Actuators(Optical Soc Amer, 2020-01-06) Hah, DooyoungA design method is proposed for variable optical attenuators (VOAs), aiming at linear attenuation-voltage characteristics, and verified by finite element analysis. Devices of interest are planar VOAs based on microelectromechanical systems technology, with either a knife-edge shutter or a reflector. The proposed method calculates the shape of the fingers of the comb-drive actuators that are used to move the optical component (shutter or reflector) to change the attenuation level. The calculation is, in effect, tantamount to solving a differential equation that encompasses the optical model of the device, electromechanical behavior of the actuators, and the objective of the design, i.e., linear attenuation-voltage characteristics. The design method is almost all-analytical with minimum usage of numerical analysis. The obtained designs are further examined by three-dimensional finite element analysis to understand their effectiveness and to probe the validity of the approximations used. The best linearity factor (defined as % deviation from the ideal case) obtained is 1.34% for both shutter- and reflection-type devices when the conditions are set as 1-dB insertion loss and 50-dB maximum attenuation.

In surface enhanced Raman scattering, a nanorough metallic surface close to the sample enormously enhances the Raman signal. In previous work, the metallic surface was a thin layer of gold deposited on a rough transparent epoxy substrate. The advantage of the clear substrate was that the Raman signal could be obtained by passing light through the substrate, on to opaque samples simply placed against its surface. In this work, a commercially available Raman spectrometer was coupled to a distant probe. Raman signals were obtained from the surface, and from the interior, of a solid specimen located more than 1 m away from the spectrometer. The practical advantage of this arrangement is that it opens up surface enhanced Raman spectrometry to a clinical environment, with a patient simply sitting or lying near the spectrometer.

In order to increase their attractiveness in practice, it is essential to improve their energy conversion efficiency. In this work, semi-cylindrical-shell-shaped structures are proposed as one of the approaches, aiming at absorption enhancement in an organic solar cell. Poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl) blended with indene-C60 bisadduct (P3HT:ICBA) is considered as the active layer. Light coupling to the guided modes and a geometrical advantage are attributed to this absorption enhancement. Finite-difference time-domain methods and finite element analysis are used to examine the absorption spectra for two types of devices, i.e., a debossed type and an embossed type. It is shown that absorption enhancement increases as the radius of the cylinder increases, but reaches a saturation at about 4-mu m radius. The average absorption enhancement with an active layer thickness of 200 nm and radius of 4 mu m, and for incidence angles between 0 degrees and 70 degrees, is found as 51%-52% for TE-polarized input and as 30%-33% for TM-polarized input when compared to a flat structure. Another merit of the proposed structures is that the range of incidence angles where the integrated absorption is at the level of the normal incidence is significantly broadened, reaching 70 degrees-80 degrees. This feature can be highly useful especially when organic solar cells are to be placed around a round object. The study results also exhibit that the proposed devices bear broadband absorption characteristics. (C) 2020 Optical Society of America
