Tunnel filters and optical amplifiers for use in fiber optic communication systems
Tunneling through a potential barrier is a well-known concept in quantum mechanics. It is shown that tunneling is not an inherently quantum-mechanical phenomenon but that it occurs in classical optics as well. Single-layer and double-layer dielectrics in which optical tunneling occurs are shown to s...
