Detailed Description
The technical solution of the present invention is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
The invention utilizes the field enhancement effect of the artificial SPPs, uses the introduced variable capacitance diode as a nonlinear device, and further realizes the parameter amplification phenomenon of a reconfigurable signal wave by adjusting the bias voltage loaded on the variable capacitance diode.
The nonlinear artificial SPP waveguide of the present invention is shown in fig. 4 and 1 (a). A nonlinear artificial SPP waveguide for parametric amplification of multi-frequency signal waves comprises a dielectric substrate, an artificial SPP transmission line, a metal wire and a variable capacitance diode, wherein the artificial SPP transmission line is positioned on the surface of the dielectric substrate, and the variable capacitance diode is connected between the artificial SPP transmission line and the metal wire.
The artificial SPP transmission line is a comb-tooth-shaped metal structure and comprises comb teeth and comb tooth connecting lines, the comb teeth are located on the same side of the comb tooth connecting lines and are perpendicularly connected with the comb tooth connecting lines, the metal line is located on the other side of the comb tooth connecting lines and corresponds to the interval between adjacent comb teeth, gaps exist between the metal line and the comb tooth connecting lines, one end of the metal line is connected with the comb tooth connecting lines through variable capacitance diodes, and the other end of the metal line is grounded through metallized through holes.
As shown in fig. 1a, under the condition that the parameters of the artificial SPP transmission line and the metal line are not changed, the dispersion characteristic of the artificial SPP waveguide is determined by the capacitance value of the varactor diode, and therefore, the parametric amplification of the multi-frequency signal wave can be realized, as shown in fig. 1 a.
Through the design of the SPP structure, the phase matching relation between the pump wave, the signal wave and the idler wave, namely f, is obtained by changing the capacitance value loaded between the metal wire and the comb tooth connecting wirep=fs+fi,kp=ks+kiWherein f isp,fs,fiRespectively corresponding to the frequencies of a pump wave, a signal wave and an idler wave; k is a radical ofp,ks,kiCorresponding to the phase constants of the pump wave, the signal wave, and the idler wave, respectively.
In this embodiment, parameters of the artificial SPP transmission line are p ═ 4mm, a ═ 2mm, and w ═ 1.5mm, a gap s between the comb teeth connection line and the metal line is 0.3mm, a length b of the metal line is 4.95mm, a distance d between the metal via and one end of the metal line is 0.5mm, and a dielectric of the dielectric substrate Rogers 4003C is usedThe constant was 3.55, the thickness was 0.508mm, and the loss tangent angle was 0.0027. The dispersion curves obtained by intrinsic simulation using commercial software CST are shown in fig. 1(b) and 1(c), and by changing the capacitance of the varactor, a reconfigurable phase matching relationship can be achieved. When the capacitance c of the varactor is 0.7pF, the phase matching condition is kp=401.4m-1(fp=5.19GHz),ks=298.9m-1(fp=3.69GHz),ki=102.5m-1(fi1.5 GHz); when the capacitance value of the varactor is changed and c is 1.05pF, the phase matching condition is kp=434.15m-1(fp=5.19GHz),ks=268.78m-1(fp=3.07GHz),ki=165.37m-1(fi=2.12GHz)。
As shown in fig. 2, based on the field enhancement characteristic of the artificial SPP and the introduced nonlinear varactor device, by adjusting the voltage applied to the varactor diode, the nonlinear artificial SPP waveguide for parametric amplification of multi-frequency signal waves can excite the amplification of multi-frequency signal waves under the condition that the corresponding phase constants of the pump wave, the signal wave and the idler wave satisfy the phase matching, and the amplification gain G, the nonlinear length L and the pump intensity I thereofpThe numerical relationship between them is as follows,

As shown in fig. 2(a), when the signal power is relatively small, the amplification gain is a constant value according to the variation of the input signal wave power. As shown in fig. 2(b), the signal gain gradually increases as the pump power increases. However, when the nonlinear length reaches a certain value, the signal gain will not show an ascending trend any more, but gradually starts to decline from the highest point, as shown in fig. 2(c) and fig. 2 (d).
When the bias voltage on the varactor loaded on the artificial SPP waveguide is changed, parametric amplification of the reconfigurable signal wave can be achieved, as shown in fig. 3.
