电磁波在周期介质中的传播及二维光子晶体的光子带结构

光子晶体是光学与凝聚态物理交叉的新领域,也是近年来应用物理学的一个重要研究领域,它是一种由介电常数高的(低的)介质在另一种介电常数低的(高的)背景介质中周期排列所组成的人造多维周期结构材料,能够产生光子带隙。频率落在带隙内的光在晶体里沿任何方向都不能传播,因而具有能够抑制原子、分子的自发辐射等诱人的光电子学特性,在基础研究和实际应用上都有着巨大的潜力。本文在这一领域里进行了富有成效的研究,获得了很好的结果。主要有:(1)利用平面波展开方法来计算二维光子晶体的带隙结构。首先,我们设计正方晶胞的二维光子晶体模型。设x₃方向为介质柱的轴方向,二维周期结构在x₁-x₂平面上。晶胞的晶格常数为a,半径为r,介质柱和空气柱的介电常数分别为ε_a=17和ε_b=1,a>2r。设计的核心思想是通过降低光子晶体结构的对称性,消除光子能带在晶体的布里渊区高对称点上的本征简并。(2)对于二维光子晶体的电磁波理论及周期介质中的Bloch波解做了详细的推导,给出了光子晶体中禁带存在的理论依据。同时以正方格子晶格的二维光子晶体为例,验证了电介质在空气圆孔中的排列存在E偏振和H偏振的光子带隙重叠区,称为绝对光子带隙。对于二维的光子晶体,两种本征偏振模式的光子能带结构可以独立地调节,以实现两者的光子带隙的最优重叠, 从而大大提高了二维光子晶体的完全带隙宽度。     

Absolute photonic band gaps of two-dimensional square-lattice photonic crystals with Taiji-shaped dielectric rods

A novel structure of two-dimensional (2D) square-lattice photonic crystal (SLPC) composed of Taiji-shaped dielectric rods imbedded in air is constructed and the properties of absolute photonic band gap (PBG) are theoretically analyzed in both the number and width by Plane Wave Expansion Method (PWM). By comparing the absolute PBGs in 2D SLPCs consisting of four shapes of rods with different symmetries (circle, button, semicircle and Taiji) at the same filling ratio, we find that both the number and width of absolute PBG significantly increase with the breaking of scatterer's symmetry, and the Taiji-shaped rods with the poorest symmetry can attain both the most number and the largest width of absolute PBGs. Additionally, we also study the influence of dielectric constant ε and three geometric parameters of Taiji-shaped scatterer on the absolute PBG and discover that the SLPC with Taiji-shaped rods can generate at most nine absolute PBGs and the largest absolute PBG with the width 0.0485 (ωa/2πc).

Enlargement of absolute photonic band gap in modified 2D anisotropic annular photonic crystals

We analyze the absolute photonic band gap in two dimensional (2D) square, triangular and honeycomb lattices composed of air holes or rings with different geometrical shapes and orientations in anisotropic tellurium background. Using the numerical plane wave expansion method, we engineer the absolute photonic band gap in modified lattices, achieved by addition of circular, elliptical, rectangular, square and hexagonal air hole or ring into the center of each lattice unit cell. We discuss the maximization of absolute photonic band gap width as a function of main and additional air hole or ring parameters with different shapes and orientation.

The plane-wave expansion method is used to calculate photonic band gaps for two structures with hollow anisotropic tellurium (Te) rods. Both structures are found to have absolute band gaps at the low- and high-frequency regions. Compared with the photonic crystal with solid Te rods, the photonic crystal with hollow Te rods has a large absolute band gap at the high-frequency region: for the triangular lattice of oval hollow Te rods, there is an absolute band gap of 0.058w_e (w_e=2πc/a), and for the square lattice of square hollow Te rods, there is an absolute band gap of 0.056w_e.     

Research of band gap properties based on two-dimensional photonic crystal with mixed shapes of rods

Two new structures of photonic crystals were designed. The band gap properties of photonic crystals with square and circular dielectric rods mixed arrangement are researched. The band gap properties of mixed shapes rods photonic crystal are calculated and compared with the crystals with square rods or round rods by using plane wave expansion method. Simulation results show that for the square lattice, mixed shapes of rods make the higher-order bands of TM modes moving toward the low frequency range. The gap bands’ widths and locations are between the parameters of square and round rods photonic crystal. In triangle lattice, a significant band gap is presented in photonic crystal with mixed shapes of rods in TE mode, while it is almost not presented in square and round rods crystals. The phenomenon of bands moving toward the low frequency range is also found in the triangle lattice mixed shapes rods photonic crystal. The reasons of the results in the vision were analyzed.

Analysis of photonic band gaps in a two-dimensional photonic crystal with centrifugal core-shell rods

The absolute photonic band gap (PBG) in two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystal with excentric core-shell rods is studied in this paper. The core rod shifts away from the core-shell rod center, and its position is decided by two new introduced parameters — the shift angle θ and the offset ρ. We use the FDTD algorithm to calculate the photonic bands of the photonic crystal, and analyze how the offset and shift angle affect the photonic bang gap of excentric core-shell photonic crystal for different core rod size. It has been shown that the variation of the photonic band gap is quite peculiar.

Band gap studies of 2D photonic crystals with hybrid scatterers

Two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystals (PCs) of a square lattice with dielectric hybrid rods in air are proposed; these PCs consist of a square rod at the center of the unit cell and additional circular rods with their outermost edges against the middle of each side of the lattice unit cell. The band gap structures of PCs can be tailored and optimized by rotating the square rods and adding circular rods to the lattice unit cell. The variation of bands near the complete photonic band gap boundaries, due to some specific modes, is sensitive to certain structural parameters of the system. The results can be understood by analyzing the spatial energy distribution of the electromagnetic fields. Based on such a field analysis, a novel interpretative model is proposed. The PC can be fabricated easily and operated in the microwave region and, hence, should be suitable for applications in new microwave devices.
