We have designed a flat graded index lens made from a metallic graded 2D photonic crystal. The gradient of index has been obtained by varying the filling factor of a flat slab of photonic crystal in the direction perpendicular to that of the propagation of the electromagnetic field. This gradient has been designed in such a way that the flat slab focuses a plane wave. With applications in the microwave range in view, we considered a photonic crystal which consists of copper strips. 相似文献

In this paper we theoretically investigate a photonic crystal with dielectric rods in a honeycomb lattice. Two left-handed frequency regions are found in the second and third photonic band by using the plane wave expansion method to analyze the photonic band structure and equifrequency contours. Subwavelength imaging by the photonic crystal flat lens are systematically studied by numerical simulations using the multiple scattering method. Different from the photonic crystals with noncircular dielectric rods in air, this structure is almost isotropic at the optimal frequency for superlensing. As a comparison, flat slab focusing is also demonstrated at other frequencies in the two left-handed regions. 相似文献

Near-field imaging of a square-lattice metallic photonic-crystal slab at the second band 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1 下载免费PDF全文
Imaging properties of a two-dimensional photonic crystal slab lens are
investigated through the finite-difference time-domain method. In this
paper, we consider the photonic crystal slab consisting of a square lattice
of square metallic rods immersed in a dielectric background. Through the
analysis of the equifrequency-surface contours and the field patterns of a
point source placed in the vicinity of the photonic crystal slab, we find
that a good-quality image can form at the frequencies in the second
TM-polarized photonic band. Comparing the images formed at different
frequencies, we can clearly see that an excellent-quality image is formed by
the mechanisms of simultaneous action of the self-collimation effect and the
negative-refraction effect. 相似文献

We propose and demonstrate a visual, all-optical pressure-measuring device composed of a flexible membrane dilating toward a photonic crystal slab. Due to its transparency and capability to be miniaturized, it may be integrated on the inner side of an artificial lens and directly measure the eye's intraocular pressure. Using crossed polarization filters for the readout process, we obtain a contrast enhancement for the circular contact area of the membrane with the photonic crystal slab. We demonstrate that the visible circle increases as a function of pressure. 相似文献

Imaging enhancement of a photonic crystal superlens due to a surface mode with a specific dispersion
Yifeng Shen Fangfang Wu Yongchun Wang Lulu Li Changqing Guo 《Photonics and Nanostructures》2012,10(4):485-492
We study the imaging process for a photonic crystal slab lens with a surface defect by the finite-difference-time-domain (FDTD) method. We demonstrate an odd surface mode with a specific dispersion curve in this system. The dispersion curve has an extreme point, which is corresponding to a slow light. If the working frequency is chosen at this extreme point the subwavelength resolution of image will be enhanced. Moreover, the subwavelength resolution of image is very sensitive to the position of this extreme point in the dispersion diagram. Longer interaction time and better field distribution may give a qualitative physical understanding for the enhancement of imaging quality. 相似文献

Diverse imaging of point source by a two-dimensional photonic crystal slab with square lattice is studied by the finite-difference time-domain method. Given proper frequencies, there seems to be some special directions like channels guiding the light propagation inside the photonic crystal, along which some images will be created. It is suggest that except negative refraction there should be other mechanisms making point image by two dimensional photonic crystal slab. 相似文献

A graded index lens made from graded 2D photonic crystal has been designed by the means of the Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method. The gradient of index has been obtained by varying the filling factor of a flat slab of photonic crystal in the direction perpendicular to that of the propagation of the electromagnetic field. This gradient has been designed in such a way that the flat slab focuses a plane wave. As only a few layers are necessary, graded photonic crystals show their ability to efficiently control the propagation of light and may apply to various photonic devices, from the microwave range to the optical domain. 相似文献

An optimized surface modification structure for
suppressing the reflections at the surfaces of photonic crystal slab lens is reported in this paper. The total reflection
of the slab lens with proposed anti-reflection surface structure is reduced to below 0.3% for the incident angle of light
less than 48 degrees. The image efficiency of the slab lens for the normal incident Gaussian beam with waist width equal to
the wavelength is near 99%. 相似文献

We report here the direct observation by using a scanning near-field microscopy technique of the light focusing through a photonic crystal flat lens designed and fabricated to operate at optical frequencies. The lens is fabricated using a III-V semiconductor slab, and we directly visualize the propagation of the electromagnetic waves by using a scanning near-field optical microscope. We directly evidence spatially, as well as spectrally, the focusing operating regime of the lens. At last, in light of the experimental scanning near-field optical microscope pictures, we discuss the lens ability to focus light at a subwavelength scale. 相似文献

Negative refraction in two-dimensional photonic crystals 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

We present some of our recent results for negative refraction in photonic crystals. The concept of negative refraction in photonic crystals is firstly introduced. Then, the propagation of electromagnetic waves in photonic crystals is systematically studied. By the layer Korringa–Kohn–Rostoker method, the coupling efficiency between external plane waves and the Bloch waves in photonic crystals is investigated. It is found that the coupling coefficient is highly angular dependent even for an interface between air with n=1 and a photonic crystal with effective index neff=-1. It is also shown that, for point imaging by a photonic crystal slab, owing to the negative refraction, the influence of the surface termination on the transmission and the imaging quality is significant. Finally, we present results experimentally demonstrating negative refraction in a two-dimensional photonic crystal at optical communication wavelengths. PACS 42.70.Qs; 41.85.Ct; 42.30.Va 相似文献

We study the effect of metallic cladding on the band structure of a two-dimensional photonic crystal slab. Band structures of a honeycomb patterned two-dimensional photonic crystal slab, with/without a metal-clad or a perfect conductor clad, are calculated using both the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method and the plane wave expansion (PWE) method. We explain the changes of the band structure due to cladding. We also show that the band structure of a metal-clad photonic crystal can be obtained effectively from the odd modes of the air bridge type dielectric photonic crystal slab, thicker than the metal-clad photonic crystal by a factor larger than two. 相似文献

We study adiabatic transformation in optical waveguides with discrete translational symmetry. We calculate the reflection and transmission coefficient for a structure consisting of a slab waveguide that is adiabatically transformed into a photonic crystal waveguide and then back into a slab waveguide. The calculation yields high transmission over a wide frequency range of the photonic crystal waveguide band and indicates efficient coupling between the slab waveguide and the photonic crystal waveguide. Other applications of adiabatic mode transformation in photonic crystal waveguides and the coupled-resonator optical waveguides are also discussed. 相似文献

We report the imaging properties of a two-dimensional rectangular-lattice photonic crystal (PC) slab consisting of rectangular metallic rods immersed in a dielectric background. By simulating the electromagnetic wave propagation through such a PC slab with the finite-difference time-domain method, we find that a point source placed in the vicinity of the PC slab can form a good-quality image through the slab. The frequency region where a good-quality image is formed can be controlled by choosing the direction along which the PC slab surface normal is placed. 相似文献

Based on the defective NR-PC flat lens incorporating Al or Cu, the effects on the resolution for target detection and imaging are studied with dynamic scanning scheme. We use the finite-difference-time-domain method to do this research. Firstly, by using the NR-PC flat lens may improve the refocusing resolution by four times, if compared to the directly backscattered lightwave without using the NR-PC lens. Then, incorporating Al or Cu into the NR-PC flat lens, we find that the dope modes with very high quality factors will occur in the photonic forbidden band. Also the stimulated radiation is enhanced for the character of energy localization of defective photonic crystal. Further studies show that different kinds of metal and structures will result in different dopped modes in the photonic forbidden band, which will lead to the change of the corresponding resolution. Due to the displacement field redistribution, the photonic crystal containing metal ingredients may take on the typical qualities of all-directional reflection, and the resonant tunneling effect may effectively reduce the loss, which provides greatly improvement on the refocusing resolution when using the defective NR-PC flat lens. In conclusion, our investigation provided the basis for converting an idealized LHM lens into a physically realizable NR-PC flat lens. Meanwhile, by impregnating metallic defect into the NR-PC lens, a new method is found out for the improvement of the refocusing resolution, which further optimizes the performance of a detecting and imaging system. 相似文献

Negative Refraction and Near-Field Imaging of an Elliptical-Rod Photonic Crystal Slab in the Second Band 下载免费PDF全文
Negative refraction and imaging properties of the electromagnetic wave through a two-dimensional photonic crystal (PC) slab, which consists of a square lattice of elliptical dielectric rods immersed in the air background, is studied by the plane-wave expansion method and the finite-difference time-domain method. A point source placed in the vicinity of the PC slab can form a good-quality image spot through the PC slab for the incident frequencies within the second photonic band. The calculated result also shows that negative refraction occurs in this kind of PC slab. 相似文献

The electromagnetic wave propagation in a two-dimensional (2D) circular photonic crystal (CPC) is investigated. The CPC structure is composed of air holes in the dielectric background material. The finite element method is used to study the optical and propagating properties of the CPC slab. Numerical simulations show that negative refraction and near-field imaging can appear in a 2D CPC slab. We also find that the high-symmetry CPC slab possesses an optics axis along the vertical direction intersecting the symmetric center. As a result, the CPC slab can exhibit an excellent imaging performance when a source is placed on the optical axis. 相似文献

In the paper, target detection and imaging from refraction photonic crystal (NR-PC) slab lens is studied by the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. Numerical simulation shows that, there is a transmission peak with a value far greater than unit, resulting from the mini-forbidden bands and resonance excitation at the resonance frequency of 0.3068 (a/λ). When a target is placed at the focus point (F2) of the NR-PC lens, its image and great amplitude could be formed in the vicinity of the point source through the focusing of backscattered optical wave from the target. Further investigation demonstrates that the lens-combined scanning scheme provides higher refocusing resolution than lens-fixed and non-dynamic scanning scheme for square target detection and imaging. 相似文献
