En 中文
Reliable high-speed communications between ever smaller device components in the semiconductor industry are ever more critical. A potential solution for high-speed communication between small form factors is to leverage surface plasmon-polariton (SPP) waves to transmit signals. In contrast to research on SPP waves for filters, splitters, phase modulators, switches, etc., we explored the potential of SPP waves for information transfer across distributed Bragg reflectors (DBR). Time-domain simulations were carried out to investigate the signal-transport and spectral characteristics before and after the DBR. The received signal weakens as the number of troughs and/or the trough width increases. A DBR reflects the SPP signal significantly, provided the pulse spectrum overlaps with the Bragg spectral regime of the DBR, which was confirmed by concordance studies. Still, the computed values of the Pearson correlation and cross-correlation coefficients indicate that the received pulse is highly and positively correlated with the transmitted pulse.
