In this paper, we propose two different types of circuit models for Fano-shape guided-mode resonance (GMR) in waveguide gratings. Both the models constitute a resonant tank circuit together with a direct non-resonant channel between the incident and scattered light. One neglects the frequency dependence of the direct non-resonant channel and is only more accurate in the immediate vicinity of the Fano-type resonance. The other accounts for the frequency dependence of the direct non-resonant channel and thus remains accurate within a wider range of frequencies. The former being referred to as the narrow-band model is extremely accurate, insofar as the isolated GMR is of interest within a...

We propose a range-free localization framework in which a network of randomly deployed acoustic sensors can passively use natural acoustic phenomena within its environment to localize itself. We introduce a novel approach for registration of sensors observations which takes advantage of a clustering technique on triplets of associated observations. A Bayesian filtering method is employed to incrementally improve system state estimation as more observations become available. To the best of our knowledge this is the first work done on range-free passive acoustic localization. Simulation experiments of the proposed algorithms are presented. © 2008 IEEE  

In this letter, a new approach to perform edge detection is presented using an all-dielectric complimentary metal-oxide-semiconductor-compatible metasurface. Our design is based on the guided-mode resonance, which provides a high quality factor resonance to make the edge detection experimentally realizable. The proposed structure is easy to fabricate, and it can be exploited for detection of edges in two dimensions due to its symmetry. In addition, a tradeoff between gain and the resolution of edge detection is discussed, which can be adjusted using appropriate design parameters. The proposed edge detector potentially can be used in ultrafast analog computing and image processing. ©...
