  • Publication number: 20190097378
    Abstract: A method for designing a non-circular dielectric resonator is provided. The method includes obtaining a conformal transformation coordinate of the non-circular dielectric resonator to correspond to a rectangular coordinate system of a circular dielectric resonator, mapping the obtained conformal transformation coordinate to the non-circular dielectric resonator, and setting a refractive index in the non-circular resonator and allowing an incident angle of light to satisfy a condition for total reflection in each of boundary areas in a non-circular dielectric resonator to which the conformal transformation coordinate is mapped.
