部分空气桥式硅膜二维光子晶体

描述在Si基底上制备带隙在近红外波段部分空气桥式二维光子晶体（PC）.选用HF酸溶液作为腐蚀液，利用聚焦离子束刻蚀技术直接刻蚀出具有三角形空气洞结构的二维PC，并测出了二维PC完整的第一带隙透过谱的带隙范围为123—155μm.实验测得的透过谱与理论计算的空气桥式二维PC的计算结果一致.类TM0模的存在减小了带隙的宽度.由于部分SiO2支撑桥式平板，二维PC易于按所需尺寸进行制备.同时，通过改变平板下的支撑材料，可以制出有源的PC，利用这种机理可以把光从支撑材料中引出. 关键词： 二维光子晶体 带隙 平板波导     

β-Zn3BPO7非线性光学晶体的光谱特性

测量了β-Zn3BPO7晶体(001)方向的红外－可见－紫外光波段的透射与反射光谱, 从而得到反射谱R透射谱T, 以及吸收系数, 并得出样品的禁带能隙Eg=3.198 eV。利用太赫兹时域光谱(THz—TDS)测量技术, 测量了THz辐射脉冲参考波形和透过样品后的信号波形, 进行傅立叶变换和简单的数学处理, 得到β-Zn3BPO7样品的介电系数的实部和虚部, 以及吸收系数的变化频谱α(ν)。在1.396, 2.002, 2.476和2.674 THz处, 分别存在明显的共振吸收峰。在THz波段的吸收较小, 特别是在0.5 T到1.5 T之间, 吸收几乎接近于零, 而样品在高频端有吸收增大的趋势。     

A Y-Branch Photonic Crystal Slab Waveguide with an Ultrashort Interport Interval

We fabricated two-dimensional photonic crystal slab Y-branch waveguides with different intervals between the two output ports and measured their light guiding characteristics. The field intensity distributions of the TE polarized wave modes are also calculated by means of a transfer matrix method. Both the theoretical and experimental results show that the minimum interval between the two output ports is about 1.4 times the transport wavelength of 1.55μm. If the interval becomes smaller, light waves in the two branches will couple each other seriously. The result will be helpful for designs of ultracompact wave demultiplexers and all-optical integrated circuits.     

二维非晶光子材料的缺陷态

应用多重散射方法计算了二维介质柱构成的非晶光子材料的缺陷态。在非晶光子材料中抽掉不同位置的圆柱会产生频率不同的缺陷模，但缺陷模的能量都是非常局域的，能量基本上集中在以缺陷波长1／3为半径的圆内。这表明非晶光子材料中形成的缺陷模不仅具有周期性光子晶体的缺陷模的强局域化特征，同时缺陷模更富于变化。

Two-dimensional ring-type photonic crystals in the near-infrared region

We propose a ring photonic crystal working in the near infrared region, where the air holes in the background material GaAs are arranged to form a series of rings. We find that the band gaps do not depend on the incident direction, and only a small number of rows are needed to create a frequency gap in the transmission spectrum. The transmission spectra of both P and S polarizations show that there is a complete bandgap in the hexagonal ring photonic crystals and the ratio of gap width to mid-gap frequency is as high as 11%.
