Design of a Thickness Sensor Based on a One-Dimensional Phononic Crystal

Nowadays, sensor technology has attracted great interest in various domains. In this work,
we have analyzed a one dimensional phononic crystal made by the stack of N bilayers of
(LiNbO3/SiO2). The sensor design consists of a one dimensional phononic crystal structure
with a defect layer inserted in the middle. Using the Transfer Matrix Method (TMM), the
transmission spectrums of acoustic waves are calculated and plotted. In this work, we are
interested in the resonance peak that is transmitted inside the phononic band gap. The
results obtained show clearly that the resonant frequency of the measured transmission
peak is very sensitive to the layer defect properties. This proves that such structure offers
a new platform for sensing applications.

Boosting faraday rotation in a one-dimensional coupled resonator magneto-plasmonics structure made by silica matrix doped with magnetic nanoparticles

The study aims to evaluate the Faraday rotation of one-dimensional structure coupled
resonator magneto-plasmonics by a metal cover layer. To this purpose, we used SiO2/ZrO2 or SiO2 /TiO2
crystals doped with magnetic nanoparticles by sol-gel process in different configurations and a gold layer of
10 nm thick for the excitation of the surface Plasmon Polaritons (SPPs). Based on Tamm plasmon, a wide
range of wavelengths is detected by which the merit factor increases due to the interaction of light with the
Tamm plasmon and surprisingly the optical window in this region in addition to the main resonance. These
structures offer the opportunity to improve the performance of magneto-optical devices.

Boosting Faraday rotation in a one-dimensional coupled resonator magnetoplasmonic structure made by silica matrix doped with magnetic nanoparticles

The present study aimed to evaluate the magneto-optic Faraday rotation of one-dimensional coupled resonator magnetoplasmonic structure by metallic cover layer in each
resonator. To this purpose, transfer matrix method was used where crystals made by SiO2/ZrO2 or SiO2/TiO2 doped with magnetic nanoparticles using sol-gel process in
different configurations and use and 10-nm thick gold or silver layer for the excitation of the surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs). Tamm plasmons are surface modes that
result from forcing the field to be confined at the metaldielectric interface via a method different than total internal reflection. Optical Tamm states can be formed in both
the TE and TM polarizations. Based on these modes, a wide range of wavelengths is detected by which the figure of merit increases due to the interaction of light with Tamm
plasmons and surprisingly the flat optical window in this region in addition to the main resonance. These structures can open a new gate for enhancing performance of the
magneto-optic devices.

Phononic band gap of longitudinal acoustic waves in one-dimensional crystal for ultrasonic applications

Nowadays, sensor technology has attracted great interest in
various domains. In this work, we have analyzed phononic
band gaps of one-dimensional phononic crystal made by a
stack of N bi-layers of LiNbO3/SiO2. The transmission
spectrum of acoustic waves is calculated by using the
transfer matrix method (TMM).
The results clearly demonstrate the existence of phononic
band gap of which the position and the width are strongly
affected by many physical parameters. Our results are useful
in various applications such as acoustic barriers and sensor
materials.

Existence of high Faraday rotation and transmittance in magneto photonic crystals made by silica matrix doped with magnetic nanoparticles

This paper focuses on studying the potential of CoFe2O4-doped magnetic nanoparticles SiO2 /
ZrO2 matrix to produce high-performance one-dimensional magnetophotonic crystals (MPC) and
to solve the problem of integrating magneto-optical devices. Given the importance of the magneto-
optical Faraday effecton most non-reciprocal optical components, we studied the influence
of different 1D structures on Faraday rotations.The potential of these structures offers a wide
range of applications in the field of miniaturized and integrated non-reciprocal devicessuch as
isolators.

‎Magneto-Photonic Crystal ‎Micro-Cavities in One Dimensional Photonic ‎Crystals Fabricated by Sol Gel Process

In this paper, we present a study on the photonic band gap of one-dimensional photonic crystals made by
SiO2/ZrO2 or SiO2/TiO2 doped with magnetic nanoparticles using the sol–gel process. The studied structure
consists of a multilayer of SiO2/ZrO2 or SiO2/TiO2 and air gap with lattice constant a= 0.70 m. The structure
is characterized by a background refractive index of 1.51. We started by introducing one defect at different
locations, then we followed by two and three defects at different locations. The results obtained show clearly
that these magnetic micro-cavities may serve as a fundamental structure in a variety of ultra-compact magneto
photonic devices such as optical isolators and modulators in the future.

Mode conversion in two-dimensional magneto-photonic crystal waveguide made by fully compatible optical sol-gel matrix

In this paper, we have reported a theoretical study of the mode conversion in two-dimensional magneto-photonic crystal waveguide. The structure is formed by a triangular lattice of air holes embedded in a composite matrix SiO2/ZrO2 or SiO2/TiO2. These new magneto-optical materials are developed by organic-inorganic sol-gel process and doped with ferrite of cobalt nanoparticles (CoFe2O4). The modal birefringence and conversion output have been calculated by varying, respectively, the film thickness and the magnetic nanoparticles concentration. The obtained results show an enhancement in the TE-TM mode conversion. Thus, when the amount of cobalt ferrite nanoparticles reaches 39% into sol-gel matrix, the efficiency can reach 95% which proves that such structures have very promising potential for creating integrated optical isolators.
