一种新型可调制的光子晶体环形腔滤波器

在光子晶体环形腔中增加两个散射介质柱,构成一个新型的环形腔滤波器,该滤波器能有效选择光波透过,光波的透射率可以达到90%以上,带宽较小.可通过这两种不同的调节方式使滤波器中波长的带宽和数值进行任意的改变:1)减小散射介质柱半径,从负载波导输出波长的带宽变大,主波导中波长的带宽减小;增大其半径时,它们的变化正好相反.2)改变耦合区域介质柱半径的大小,滤波器中波长的数值也会相应地变化,它与介质柱半径的变化呈正比,并且透射率也会发生明显的变化.这就为其在制备集成光子器件的应用中奠定了基础. 关键词： 环形腔 滤波器 散射介质柱 透射率

The modulation of a novel photonic crystal ring resonator filter

Adding two scattering dielectric cylinders in a photonic crystal ring resonator, a new type of ring resonator filter is achieved, the transmission of which attains 90% and the bandwidth are relatively small. By taking two different measures, the filter wavelength and bandwidth are modulated arbitrarily: (1) With the scattering dielectric cylinder radius decreasing, the bandwidth of output wavelength from the load waveguide gets larger, while the wavelength bandwidth of the bus waveguide decreases; and when the radius increases, they change adversely. (2) Changing the radius of dielectric cylinder in the coupling region, the wavelength in the filter will change accordingly, and the amount of change was proportional to the radius of dielectric cylinder, and the transmission changes significantly. This may serve as the foundation for applications in the preparation of integrated photonic device.
