Soliton-Like Light Propagation through Coupled Resonators Constructed with Periodic Metal-Dielectric Layers

Article Preview

Abstract:

in order to obtain a soliton-like light propagation, we design a coupled resonator structure constructed with one-dimensional periodic metal-dielectric layers. Through tight-binding analysis and the Blochs theorem, we study its transmission mechanisms. Basing on the transmission mechanisms, we achieve a soliton-like light propagation in it with a group velocity being smaller light velocity in free space.
