An Equilateral Triangle Waveguide Beam Splitter
In this paper an optical beam splitter based on an equilateral triangle waveguide (ETW) is studied theoretically and numerically. We show that an optical beam splitter bases on ETW formed only when the length of the waveguide and the location of incident light are appropriate. When the length of the ETW is one third of the self-imaging length, the incident light is divided into three identical and symmetrical beams; while the length of the ETW is one nine of the self-imaging length, the incident light is divided into twenty- seven identical and symmetrical beams, if the number is less than twenty-seven, that is because some of images overlap with each other. It is expected that the results obtained here will help to design a new splitter.
Image transmission through a mental equilateral triangle waveguide
Image transmission through an equilateral triangle waveguide is discussed theoretically. Self-image period in a mental equilateral triangle waveguide is derived; and image transmission on the waveguide is studied by numerical simulation. With the help of numerically analyzing, it is found that three output images form from one of three the self-imaging length of the waveguide, moreover, the symmetrical output images rotate 120°angles.
