Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to optical element, specifically be meant a kind of based on the polarization beam apparatus of using in the formed waveguide of photon crystal structure.
Background technology
Photonic crystal is to introduce periodically specific inductive capacity modulation, a kind of microstructure that the cycle of its medium dielectric constant microwave medium can be compared with optical wavelength by the whole bag of tricks artificially.The cyclical variation of dielectric function can be modulated the state model of photon in the material, and photon band gap is occurred, and when light frequency is positioned at the photon band gap scope, it can not any direction in photonic crystal be propagated.Photonic crystal has important application prospects.Because its characteristic, can make brand-new principle or in the past the high performance device that can not make.At present, in theory and the photonic crystal polarization beam splitter of experimentally being realized mainly be the principle of utilizing the polarization dependence of forbidden photon band, wherein reflected light and refract light utilize at most.These polarization beam apparatus not only structurally can not be compatible mutually with the device that existing employing waveguide-coupled method realizes, and owing to adopted reflected light and refract light, its light path is more restive.
Summary of the invention
The purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of photon crystal wave-guide polarization beam splitter, solve the problem of the device compatibility that existing polarization beam apparatus structurally can not realize with existing employing waveguide-coupled method.
Photon crystal wave-guide polarization beam splitter of the present invention is the beam split that realizes TE light and TM light according to the principle of optical waveguide directional coupler.When two identical waveguides of structure are leaned on very closely, because the coupling between the waveguide, when light during by a waveguide incident, the phenomenon that light can presentation space be coupled periodically and propagates forward between two waveguides.If TE light has different coupling lengths with TM light, just can utilize their coupling length difference that they are coupled to respectively in the different waveguides and go, thereby realize the beam split of TE light and TM light.As, the coupling length of supposing TE light is LE, the coupling length of TM light is LM.If we select the length of coupling regime between two waveguides is L=even number * LE, L=odd number * LM, get back to again in the original waveguide after TE light is coupled through even number so and propagate, and TM light is propagated in the another one waveguide through odd number time coupling back, thereby realizes the beam split of TE light and TM light.Because photon crystal wave-guide compared a lot of advantages with conventional waveguide: for example bending loss very low, help with other photonic crystal element integratedly etc., the present invention adopts photon crystal wave-guide to realize polarization beam apparatus.
Based on above-mentioned mentality of designing, technical solution of the present invention is: introduce the beam split that the waveguide-coupled structure realizes TE light and TM light in the photonic crystal of two-dimentional dielectric column type square lattice.We adopt with other photon crystal devices (as, wavelength division multiplexer, directional coupler) compatible fully structure so that can form integrated optical circuit, as shown in Figure 1 with these devices.Incident light is by the port one incident of waveguide 4, in the coupled zone, TE light through twice coupling after final echo lead 4, draw by port 2; TM is drawn by port 3 through once being coupled to waveguide 5.The dielectric post material of photonic crystal is a tellurium single-crystal, and the characteristics of this material are anisotropic material, wavelength be 3.5 μ m in the scope of 35 μ m, the refractive index n of its ordinary light
o=4.8, the refractive index n of unusual light
