立体耦合光子晶体薄板微腔的高Q值特性研究

利用微腔之间的立体耦合,提出了基于无源材料硅的双层光子晶体薄板H1(DLPCS-H1)腔,薄板之间为空气层.使用三维时域有限差分方法和Padé近似方法分析了DLPCS-H1腔的偶极模的场分布和品质因子.通过对中间空气层高度的优化使DLPCS-H1腔的偶极模的品质因子得到了显著的提高,大约为单层光子晶体薄板H1腔的偶极模的品质因子的4倍.此外,还研究了三层光子晶体薄板H1腔,它的偶极模的品质因子约为单层光子晶体薄板H1腔的偶极模的品质因子的7倍.

The characteristic of the stero-coupling high-Q photonic crystal slab cavity

Inspired by the idea of the stero-coupling, we propose a new sandwich-like photonic crystal microcavity which is composed of double layer photonic crystal slabs H1 (DLPCS-H1) cavity with an air layer in between. We calculate the electromagnetic field distribution and the quality factor of the dipole mode by the three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain method and the Padé approximation method. Through carefully analyzing the effect of the air layer height on the quality factor of the dipole mode, we obtain an optimized DLPCS-H1 cavity in which the height of intermediate air layer is about 0.5a (a is the lattice constant, a=420 nm). In this cavity, the quality factor of the dipole mode is 4 times as large as that of the conventional single layer photonic crystal slab H1 cavity. Furthermore, we study the three-layer photonic crystal slabs H1 cavity, and the quality factor of its dipole mode is increased over 7 times.
