Spectral properties of a one-dimensional resonant photonic crystal

The eigenexcitation and transmission spectra of a one-dimensional resonant photonic crystal are studied for TM and TE polarized electromagnetic waves. The crystal considered is a layered structure consisting of alternating isotropic layers and layers of a resonantly absorbing gas. The performed calculations show that the band structure of the spectra of the resonant photonic crystal significantly changes as the angle of incidence and the density of the resonant gas are varied. The structure of the spectra of additional transmission in the bandgap of the resonant photonic crystal is studied taking into account the decay of electromagnetic modes. The possibilities of controlling the spectrum of electromagnetic modes are indicated.

Effect of uniaxial anisotropy of left-handed layers on created surface waves in a one dimensional photonic crystal

We investigate theoretically the creation conditions of TE and TM polarized surface waves created at the interface between a homogeneous medium and one dimensional photonic crystal (1D PC). The 1D PC is composed of uniaxially anisotropic left-handed (LH) and isotropic right-handed (RH) layers. We show that the characteristics of surface waves created in the 1D PC are significantly different from those created in the structure composed of isotropic LH and RH layers. We also prove that the coexistence of TE and TM surface waves at the interface is possible in the same frequency domain. Moreover, it is shown that in this structure backward and forward surface waves are created in wider ranges of frequency and angle of incident light, in comparison with the structure in which the left-handed layers are isotropic.

表层厚度渐变一维耦合腔光子晶体的反射相位特性及其应用

利用传输矩阵法研究了表层厚度渐变的一维非对称耦合腔光子晶体的反射相位特性. 研究表明, 光子禁带内(包括缺陷模附近)的反射率在98%以上, 且基本不受表层厚度影响, 特别是, 在非正入射情况下, 简并的缺陷模随着表层厚度的变化会发生分裂; 进一步研究发现, 在缺陷模分裂处附近, TE, TM偏振的反射相位以及它们之间的相位差均敏感地依赖于表层厚度的变化, 从而使得反射光的偏振态也随表层厚度的变化而敏感变化, 其物理机理在于缺陷模分裂所造成的剧烈相位变化. 基于上述特性, 设计了一种表层厚度呈二维周期变化的一维光子晶体结构, 从该结构反射的激光经透镜聚焦后, 在聚焦区域同时存在各种偏振态(包括沿不同方向的线偏振、左旋或右旋圆偏振、椭圆偏振等)的子光束, 它们叠加后在聚焦区域将产生具有无规相位和无规偏振态的光场. 以上结果能有效降低激光的相干性, 在激光核聚变等领域有潜在的应用价值.     

Bound states in the continuum in metal—dielectric photonic crystal with a birefringent defect

By using the difference of the band structure for the TE and TM waves in the metal—dielectric photonic crystals beyond the light cone and the birefringence of the anisotropic crystal, a one-dimensional photonic system is constructed to realize the bound states in the continuum (BICs). In addition to the BICs arising from the polarization incompatibility, the Friedrich—Wintgen BICs are also achieved when the leaking TM wave is eliminated due to the destructive interference of its ordinary and extraordinary wave components in the anisotropic crystal. A modified scheme favorable for practical application is also proposed. This scheme for BICs may help to suppress the radiation loss in the metal—dielectric photonic crystal systems.     

A polarization splitter based on self-imaging phenomena in an anisotropic photonic crystal with an absolute photonic band gap

In a multi-mode waveguide of an anisotropic photonic crystal with an absolute photonic band gap, self-imaging phenomena are achieved for both TE and TM polarizations. Through careful choice of structure parameters, or the working frequency, the field of TE and TM polarization components can be separated in space after a certain propagating distance, based on which a polarization splitter is designed and numerically simulated. The numerical simulation shows that the polarization extinction ratio of the polarization splitter can reach a value of 22.9 dB and 19.2 dB at its two output ports, respectively.     

Bragg polaritons: strong coupling and amplification in an unfolded microcavity

Periodic incorporation of quantum wells inside a one-dimensional Bragg structure is shown to enhance coherent coupling of excitons to the electromagnetic Bloch waves. We demonstrate strong coupling of quantum well excitons to photonic crystal Bragg modes at the edge of the photonic band gap, which gives rise to mixed Bragg polariton eigenstates. The resulting Bragg polariton branches are in good agreement with the theory and allow demonstration of Bragg polariton parametric amplification.

基于Bragg反射光栅是一维光子晶体的一种特例结构,本文提出利用一维光子晶体带隙理论进行Bragg反射光栅设计.通过光学仿真软件OptiFDTD对Bragg反射光栅的宽度及倾斜角度误差的仿真分析,发现Bragg光栅齿刻槽宽度变化在10%范围、倾斜角度10°以内不会引起Bragg光栅衍射效率的明显变化,说明Bragg反射光栅具有较高的工艺误差容限;根据一维光子晶体带隙理论,设计了一种罗兰圆结构的Bragg衍射双光栅结构模型,实现了两个频段之间的衍射分光,优化分析结果表明:当第一套光栅中Bragg周期层数为6、第二套光栅Bragg周期层数为10时,两频段波长的衍射效率均可以达到70%左右,明显高于传统深刻蚀的衍射光栅.基于本设计的波分复用器是一种尺寸小、衍射效率高的新型EDG波分复用器,为未来高效密集型EDG波分复用器发展提供了一种新的设计思路.     

介质层厚度无序对Bragg微腔模式的影响

采用本征模展开法(EME)结合完全匹配层（PML）边界条件,研究了由TiO2和SiO2复合膜结构组成的平面光子晶体Bragg微腔的模式特性,分析了介质厚度无序对微腔模式的调制以及入射角对局域长度的影响.结果表明,若光束正入射,带边局域长度要大于禁带局域长度,随着无序度的增加光子通带的透过率逐渐降低,而禁带的透过率逐渐上升.当无序度较小时,局域长度随随机度的变化在带边和禁带内表现出相反的规律.当无序度较大时,局域长度不仅和随机度、带隙有关,还受到材料的影响;若光束斜入射,TE模的局域长度要远小于TM模对应的值,且其最小值向短波方向移动。此外,入射角和膜层数的变化都会导致局域长度的起伏.

Effect of anisotropy on the photonic band gap and surface polaritons of a one-dimensional single-negative photonic crystal

The effect of anisotropy on the photonic band structure and surface polaritons of a one-dimensional photonic crystal made of uniaxially anisotropic epsilon-negative (ε<0,μ>0) and mu-negative (ε>0,μ<0) metamaterials is theoretically investigated. Two different cases of uniaxially anisotropic epsilon-negative and mu-negative metamaterials are considered. It is found out that for one case of anisotropy, one-dimensional photonic crystal does not have any single-negative band gap. As a result, it can not support the surface polaritons. While, for another case, the structure shows single-negative band gaps. So, the surface polaritons can be excited at the interface of such a photonic crystal. However, these surface polaritons, unlike the isotropic case, are not omnidirectional and they are restricted to a limited rang of the propagation constant.

Polariton dynamics of a one-dimensional gyrotropic magnetic photonic crystal in a dc electric field: I. Peculiarities of refraction

It is shown that both TE and TM waves incident on the surface of a semi-infinite one-dimensional thin-layer gyrotropic magnetic photonic crystal of the magnetic-nonmagnetic dielectric type can experience a number of refraction anomalies in an external electric field due to the effect of hybridization of evanescent waves in magnetic and nonmagnetic layers. These anomalies are absent under the same conditions in spatially homogeneous media consisting of the same materials as the photonic crystal.
