TL;DR: In this paper, a plane-wave-based transfer-matrix method was employed in combination with a Blochmode scattering model to scrutinize the optical performance of an ultracompact photonic crystal (PC) all-pass optical filter made from a single-mode PC waveguide side coupled with latitudinal optical microcavities.

TL;DR: In this article, a transfer-matrix method is used to investigate light coupling into and out of single-end multimode photonic crystal waveguides, which allows unambiguous quantitative determination of the coupling efficiency of external light into each guided mode and transition among various guided modes.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors observe an unusual combination of normal and superconducting state properties without any signature of strong spin fluctuations in single-crystal Ir3Te8, which exhibits two extended linear regimes with the same slope, separated by a small hysteretic interval marking a strong first-order phase transition from cubic to rhombohedral lattice symmetry at T-S = 350 K.

TL;DR: In this paper, a plane-wave-based transfer-matrix method was used to investigate the intrinsic optical properties of channel-drop filters built from parallel photonic crystal waveguides coupled through localized cavities with a better spectrum resolution than the usual finite-difference timedomain technique.
