Modal characterization of thermal emitters using the Method of Moments
Denis Tihon ; Stafford Withington ; Christophe Craeye ;
Date 17 Jan 2020
AbstractElectromagnetic sources relying on spontaneous emission are difficult to characterize without a proper framework due to the partial spatial coherence of the emitted fields. In this paper, we propose to characterize emitters of any shape through their natural emitting modes, i.e. a set of coherent modes that add up incoherently. The resulting framework is very intuitive since any emitter is regarded as a multimode antenna with zero correlation between modes. Moreover, for any finite emitter, the modes form a compact set that can be truncated. Each significant mode corresponds to one independent degree of freedom through which the emitter radiates power. The proposed formalism is implemented using the Method of Moments (MoM) and applied to a lossy sphere and a lossy ellipsoid. It is shown that electrically small structures can be characterized with a small number of modes, and that this number grows as the structure becomes electrically large.
