Highly Directive Hybrid Plasmonic Leaky-Wave Optical Antenna With Controlled Side-Lobe Level
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Various configurations are proposed to engineer the pattern of optical leaky-wave antennas with the goal of achieving a desired side-lobe level (SLL). By the aid of the proposed algorithm, two types of hybrid plasmonic optical traveling wave antennas with controlled SLL are designed and numerically analyzed. The antennas are designed to operate at the standard telecommunication wavelength of 1550 nm, and have a wide bandwidth that completely cover the standard optical communication bands of E, S, and C. The first configuration in which the tapering is applied to the width of slots results in a broad bandwidth of 28 THz, a high directivity of 14.6 dBi, an efficiency of 73%, and a low SLL of -19.4 dB. The second configuration, in which wall tapering is applied, exhibits a bandwidth greater than 30 THz, a high directivity of 13.6 dBi, an efficiency of 79%, and an excellent SLL of -25 dB. Thanks to the high gain and low SLL, these devices can have applications in integrated optical interconnects, highly integrated optical beam-steering devices, such as active LIDARs and solar cells with high efficiency.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
