The DBR mirrors form a Fabry-Perot (FP) cavity whose resonant frequency can be tuned by changing the effective refractive index of the cavity, here, by tailoring the in-plane filling factor of the grating. The structure has been studied and designed by performing numerical simulations using Fourier Modal Method (FMM). This filter proves to have high broad angular tolerance up to ±30˚. This feature is crucial for evaluating the spectral performance of narrow-band filters especially the so-called Ambient light sensors (ALS). By analyzing the transmittance spectral distributions in the band diagram, it is found that the angular tolerance is due to coupling between the FP and the guided mode inside the cavity in analogy to resonances occurring within multimode periodic waveguides in a different context.","PeriodicalId":64491,"journal":{"name":"光学与光子学期刊(英文)","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43385018","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such a photon size would be quite separate from the cross-section of a photonic interaction, which depends on the material interacting. Such a perpendicular dimension of a photon will be invariant under Lorentz transform parallel to the light propagation direction and will thus be the same for all frequencies of light. This study also leads to new details about how a photon interacts, offering an explanation for the familiar physics where light slightly above and below the mean frequency of an excited state can still excite the same state without violation of conservation of energy—a mystery explored thoroughly in a previous paper without finding the solution offered here.

The complex atmospheric environment will produce a variety of adverse effects on the signal. The interference produced by these effects overlaps with each other, which will seriously affect the strength of the received signal. Therefore, how to effectively suppress the atmospheric turbulence effect in the random atmospheric turbulence channel, ensure the normal transmission of the signal in the atmospheric channel, and reduce the bit error rate of the communication system, is very necessary to improve the communication system. When processing the received signal, it is an important step to detect the transmitted signal by comparing the received signal with the threshold. In this paper, based on the atmospheric turbulence distribution model, the adaptive signal decision threshold is obtained through the estimation of high-order cumulant. Monte Carlo method is used to verify the performance of adaptive threshold detection. The simulation results show that the high-order cumulant estimation of atmospheric turbulence parameters can realize the adaptive change of the decision threshold with the channel condition. It is shown that the adaptive threshold detection can effectively restrain atmospheric turbulence, improve the performance of free space optical and improve the communication quality.","PeriodicalId":64491,"journal":{"name":"光学与光子学期刊(英文)","volume":"11 1","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49418162","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
