Abstract

The accurate reflection coefficient of prism waveguide coupler that takes coherence property of incident light into account is obtained at first. Based on the reflection coefficient, the effect of coherence property of incident light on prism coupling is discussed in this work. It is shown that extra damping in waveguide caused by the coherence property is larger for high-order resonant mode than that for low-order mode. For 100fs Gaussian pulses incidence, the reflected spectra at different resonant modes are obtained theoretically and experimentally, which show that coherence property has a strong effect on prism coupling at high-order modes.
