This finding indicates that edge waves in the offshore direction exist as evanescent waves in deep water and as propagating waves in shallow water. Since evanescent waves can stably exist in a limited region while propagating waves cannot, energy should be released from nearshore regions. In the present study, the instability region is predicted based on both the full water wave solution and the shallow-water wave approximation.展开更多

The influence of the thin film pa- rameters on the thermal radiation directional characteristics and spectral property were discussed. And the influence of the evanescent waves was also discussed. The results show that two factors play important roles in the thermal radiation of negative index thin film: one is the interference effect of the thin film structure to the electromagnetic waves; the other is the photon tunneling effect of the negative refractive index material, which was caused by the amplifying evanescent wave. These indicate that spectral and directional characteristics of the thermal emissivity can be modulated by modifying the structure and the physics parameters of the negative refraction index thin film.展开更多

It has been found in the study that a large range of refractive index starting from the gaseous medium to highly concentrated liquids can be sensed by using a single chip in the visible region of the spectrum. The variation of the sensitivity as well as detection accuracy with sensing region refractive index has been analyzed in detail. The large value of the sensitivity along with the large dynamic range is the advantageous feature of the present sensing probe.展开更多

The model was used for ultra-thin Pd nanometric layers sputtered on glass substrates. The layers thickness profiles were displayed in 3D and 1D profiles plots. The total thickness profiles of the ultra-thin Pd films obtained in the range of 1-10 nm were validated using AFM measurements. Based on the model developed the evanescent photon extraction parameter of the material was estimated.展开更多
