This study aims to design an all-optical transistor based on tunneling of light through frustrated total internal reflection. Under total internal reflection, the electromagnetic wave penetrates into the lower index medium. If a medium with high refractive index is placed close to the boundary of the first one, a portion of light leaks into the second medium. The penetrated electromagnetic field distribution can be influenced by another coherent light in the low refractive index medium via interference, leading to light amplification. Upon this technique, we introduce coherent all-optical transistors based on photonic crystal structures. Subsequently, we inspect the shortest pulse which is amplified by the designed system and also its terahertz repetition rate. We will show that such a system can operate in a cascade form. Operating in terahertz range and the amplification efficiency of around 20 are of advantages of this system.

基于受阻的全内反射的相干全光晶体管。

这项研究的目的是设计一种基于光通过受阻全内反射的隧穿的全光晶体管。在全内反射下，电磁波会渗透到低折射率介质中。如果将高折射率的介质放置在第一个介质的边界附近，则一部分光会泄漏到第二个介质中。低折射率介质中的其他相干光会通过干扰影响穿透的电磁场分布，从而导致光放大。基于此技术，我们介绍了基于光子晶体结构的相干全光晶体管。随后，我们检查设计的系统放大的最短脉冲及其太赫兹重复频率。我们将证明这种系统可以级联形式运行。
