双重势垒一维光子晶体量子阱的光传输特性研究

利用传输矩阵法,研究单势垒和双重势垒一维光子晶体量子阱结构的光传输特性.结果表明:垒层折射率总和大的单势垒光量子阱的透射峰更加精细,内部局域电场更加强;双重势垒光量子阱的透射峰比单势垒光量子阱的透射峰精细,内部局域电场也比单势垒光量子阱的强;随着垒层光子晶体周期数增大,双重势垒光量子阱内部局域电场增强,而且垒、阱层折射率总和之比越大,双重势垒光量子阱的内部局域电场增强速度越快,当双重垒层光子晶体周期数同时增大时,双重势垒量子阱内部局域电场增强速度最快,透射峰越加精细.随着阱层光子晶体周期数的增大,单势垒或双重势垒光量子阱的内部局域电场强度均下降,但透射峰的透射率不随之改变.该特性为设计新型可调高品质的量子光学器件提供指导.

基于表面等离激元交叉耦合作用的纳米金属双缝异常透射现象

利用二维时域有限差分方法研究了非对称纳米金属双缝结构在薄隔层情况下对光波的异常透射特性,以及狭缝长度、狭缝数目和入射角度对透射特性的影响.研究发现,该双缝结构中传导的表面等离激元波通过渗透中间隔层材料产生交叉耦合作用,形成对称和反对称耦合模式,导致其透射谱在特定波长位置处形成双共振峰传输和一个透射率为零的透射抑制现象;双缝结构中表面等离激元波交叉耦合作用的本质是其横向电场分量渗入中间隔层材料产生的相互干涉作用,而横向电场分量的初始相位差决定双缝结构中形成的表面等离激元波耦合模式的类型.由于双缝结构的透射极值与各狭缝腔内的法布里-珀罗共振效应密切相关,因此狭缝长度决定透射极值的波长位置,而狭缝数目和入射角度只影响透射峰的传输效率.该双缝结构具备光学滤波和空间分光功能,在新型纳米光子器件领域具有潜在的应用价值.

High transmittance of connected resonant modes

We investigate the propagation of electromagnetic wave through photonic quantum-well structures constructed by one-dimensional photonic crystals with defect layers. It is shown that non-destroyed high transmittance of each separated resonant mode can be found if photonic quantum-well structures are properly connected. Experimental fabrication of combined photonic quantum-well structures is carried out, and the results agree with the numerical calculations very well.     

DOUBLE PERIODIC PHOTONIC CRYSTAL WITH METAMATERIAL

In this paper, the reflection and transmission coefficients of multi-layer dielectric and metamaterial media are derived by transmission-line method. Then, it is applied to double periodic photonic crystal structure, which is composed of two thin dielectric layers sandwiched by two thin metamaterial layers. The results show the structure has a large passband and a monotonous symmetric rising band edges compared with that for a conventional photonic crystal structure. If a defect layer is introduced, the localized modes appear. Furthermore, the number of transmission peaks in the photonic crystal structure can be tuned by changing the thickness of the defect in the structure. This photonic crystal may find application to broadband reflectors and the multi-wavelength narrow band optical filters.     

Lateral shifting in one dimensional chiral photonic crystal

We report the lateral shifts of the transmitted waves in a one dimensional chiral photonic crystal by using the stationary-phase approach. It is revealed that two kinds of lateral shifts are observed due to the existence of cross coupling in chiral materials, which is different from what has been observed in previous non-chiral photonic crystals. Unlike the chiral slab, the positions of lateral shift peaks are closely related to the band edges of band gap characteristics of periodic structure and lateral shifts can be positive as well as negative. Besides, the lateral shifts show a strong dependence on the chiral factor, which varies the lateral shift peaks in both magnitudes and positions. These features are desirable for future device applications.

Resonant modes in photonic multiple quantum well structures with single-negative materials

A type of photonic multiple quantum well (PMQWs) structure made of two different photonic crystals (PCs) with two kinds of single-negative materials is investigated. It is demonstrated by transfer matrix method that omnidirectional resonance modes are generated. The number of the resonance modes can be controlled by adjusting the periodic structure of the constituents. The resonance tunneling modes are weak dependence on incident angle and the scaling of the barrier photonic crystals. When the losses are taken into account, the effects of the losses coming from ENG media and MNG media on the resonance modes are striking difference.     

Near-infrared tunable narrow filter properties in a 1D photonic crystal containing semiconductor metamaterial photonic quantum-well defect

The near-infrared (NIR) narrow filter properties in the transmission spectra of a one-dimensional photonic crystal doped with semiconductor metamaterial photonic quantum-well defect (PQW) were theoretically studied. The behavior of the defect mode as a function of the stack number of the PQW defect structure, the filling factor of semiconductor metamaterial layer, the polarization and the angle of incidence were investigated for Al-doped ZnO (AZO) and ZnO as the semiconductor metamaterial layer. It is found that the frequency of the defect mode can be tuned by variation of the period of the defect structure, polarization, incidence angle, and the filling factor of the semiconductor metamaterial layer. It is also shown that the number of the defect mode is independent of the period of the PQW defect structure and is in sharp contrast with the case where a common dielectric or metamaterial defect are used. The results also show that for both polarizations the defect mode is red-shifted as the number of the defect period and filling factor increase. An opposite trend is observed as the angle of incidence increases. The proposed structure could provide useful information for designing new types of tuneable narrowband filters at NIR region.     

A mid-infrared tunable filter in a semiconductor-dielectric photonic crystal containing doped semiconductor defect

In this work, we theoretically analyze tunable filtering properties in a semiconductor-dielectric photonic crystal (SDPC) containing doped semiconductor defect in the mid-infrared frequency region. We consider two possible configurations of filter structures, the symmetric and asymmetric ones. With a defect of the doped n-type semiconductor, n-Si, the resonant transmission peak can be tuned by varying the doping concentration, that is, the peak wavelength will be shifted to the position of lower wavelength for both structures. Additionally, by increasing the defect thickness, it is also possible to have a filter with multiple resonant peaks, leading to a multichannel filter. The results provide another type of tunable filter in the defective SDPC that could be of technical use for semiconductor applications in optical electronics.
