lattice coupler--frustrated total (internal) reflection Explanation: Gitter=lattice, grid -koppler=coupler in Muret-Sanders and confirmed through: http://www.google.com/search?q=grid coupler lattice coupler Emory has a site, which seemed to be very slow for me, but you should find it there. You can get to it via the above link. Frustrated total (internal) reflection you find here: http://www.treasure-troves.com/physics/FrustratedTotalIntern...

grating coupler; frustrated total reflection Explanation: Demonstation of Optical Bistability with a Nonlinear Frustrated-Total-Reflection Filter M. Haelterman and C. Waelbroeck The nonlinear frustrated-total-reflection filter is proposed as a remarkably simple all-optical computing element. Potential advantages of this device over nonlinear prism couplers and nonlinear thin films are presented. Optical bistability is experimentally demonstrated by using a liquid crystal as an optically nonlinear material (12 Refs.) http://www.ulb.ac.be/polytech/soa/MARC/abs-p7.html frustrated total reflection Light leakage at a total reflecting interface when another highly refractive medium is brought close to it. http://www.laurin.com/DataCenter/Dictionary/CD/df/frustore.h... Check out their glossary, it's quite extensive! For Gitterkoppler, I found only one instance of “lattice coupler” (see below) Biomolecular Interaction Analysis-bioaffinity measurement device (SPR, lattice coupler) www.ibmt.fhg.de/ibmt4_e.html However, Gitter is often translated as “grating” in an optical context. A search on “grating coupler” yielded some 2,400 hits. The first URL below might be of particular interest to you. http://www.photond.com/products/grating/gcm2spec.htm www.gtrc.gatech.edu/abstracts/1745.html www.jate.u-szeged.hu/~natosfp/sensor_ani.htm www.jate.u-szeged.hu/~natosfp/pplan.htm HTH! |
