Observation of a Chiral State in a Microwave Cavity
A microwave experiment has been realized to measure the phase difference of
the oscillating electric field at two points inside the cavity. The technique
has been applied to a dissipative resonator which exhibits a singularity --
called exceptional point -- in its eigenvalue and eigenvector spectrum. At the
singularity, two modes coalesce with a phase difference of We
conclude that the state excited at the singularity has a definitiv chirality.Comment: RevTex 4, 5 figure
Compensation of the impact of low-cost manufacturing techniques in the design of E-plane multiport waveguide junctions
In this work, a full-wave tool for the accurate analysis and design of compensated E-plane multiport junctions is proposed. The implemented tool is capable of evaluating the undesired effects related to the use of low-cost manufacturing techniques, which are mostly due to the introduction of rounded corners in the cross section of the rectangular waveguides of the device. The obtained results show that, although stringent mechanical effects are imposed, it is possible to compensate for the impact of the cited low-cost manufacturing techniques by redesigning the matching elements considered in the original device. Several new designs concerning a great variety of E-plane components (such as right-angled bends, T-junctions and magic-Ts) are presented, and useful design guidelines are provided. The implemented tool, which is mainly based on the boundary integral-resonant mode expansion technique, has been successfully validated by comparing the obtained results to simulated data provided by a commercial software based on the finite element method.All the data necessary to understand, evaluate, replicate, and generate the figures and results presented in this paper have been included in the present manuscript. A full-wave custom code and the commercial software Ansys HFSS have been used to generate the simulated results provided by the authors.
