Embodiment
Below in conjunction with drawings and Examples technical scheme of the present invention is further described.
As shown in Figure 1, the optical add/drop filter based on 2 D photon crystal band gap and auto-collimation effect of the present invention's design comprises upper end straight wave guide I, lower end straight wave guide II, the autocollimation ring district III between the upper and lower side straight wave guide.
In a design implementation example of the present invention, investigate the gallium arsenide medium post 2 D photon crystal of arranging based on tetragonal, centre wavelength is the communication band of 1550 nanometers, the refractive index of gallium arsenide is 3.59.For two-dimensional medium column type photonic crystal, its TM pattern has bigger photon band gap (PBG).In order to obtain big band gap, getting medium column radius r is 0.185a, and a is a grating constant here.Remove organ timbering and form L1 straight wave guide (the rest may be inferred), be commonly called as the Bus waveguide, and straight wave guide is an input waveguide on the definition, the lower end straight wave guide is for the road or the waveguide of setting out on a journey down, shown in straight wave guide I, II among Fig. 1.For the tetragonal photonic crystal generally in the certain frequency scope autocollimation district can appear along Γ M, change three row's photonic crystal radiuses such as 0.115a (annotate: row's number gets final product auto-collimation effect to occur) along Γ M for this reason, under peripheral photonic band gap restriction, thereby form autocollimation ring district, shown in autocollimation ring district III among Fig. 1.We at first investigate the dispersion curve figure of above-mentioned Bus waveguide, as shown in Figure 2, in normalized frequency 0.28a/ λ~0.44a/ λ, have very wide single mode wavelength.For 1550nm center communication wavelengths, choosing a is 540nm, and then corresponding wavelength range is 1227~1928nm.Investigate the isofrequency map of above-mentioned photonic crystal simultaneously, as shown in Figure 3-4.When Fig. 3 photonic crystal radius is got 0.115a, have autocollimation ring district in frequency 0.33~0.36a/ λ, this frequency drops on photonic band gap the inside just, meets design philosophy of the present invention; And remain unchanged for Fig. 4 photonic crystal radius, when being 0.185a, in frequency 0.255~0.26a/ λ, have autocollimation ring district, drop on outside the photonic band gap, thereby the light of propagating in the straight wave guide of upper end can't be propagated in autocollimation ring district III effectively and be coupled to the lower end straight wave guide.For the traditional photonic crystal micro-ring with recent proposition carries out objective comparison, the peripheral photonic crystal row number of we cut-off waveguide I, II is 5 rows, coupling row number between straight wave guide and the district's waveguide of autocollimation ring is 1, as shown in Figure 1, several then 10 rows from figure of row are increased to 24 rows about the periphery of photonic crystal micro-ring.
As shown in Figure 1, place power monitor respectively at A, B, four ports of C, D, and be input port with the A port, utilize two-dimensional time-domain finite difference (2D FDTD) computing method, and to select the complete matching layer of anisotropy (PML) for use be absorbing boundary condition, injects the Gauss pulse light beam that covers above-mentioned spectra of interest scope, and the power that B, C, D port monitor is compared with the power of input port A, can try to achieve the normalization transmission spectrum of other three ports, shown in Fig. 5-7.Obviously, when the radius of autocollimation ring district III is got 0.115a, can obtain the optical add/drop filter function that traditional photonic crystal micro-ring is realized, obtaining the normalization intensity transmission at the D port is 0.979 1588nm signal, as shown in Figure 5.Compare with traditional little ring under the same terms, as Fig. 7, quality factor q of the present invention (be defined as λ/Δ λ, wherein Δ λ is peak wavelength half maximal value overall with FWHM) has then improved more than 4 times, and is about 500, and spectral line symmetry more.And the photonic crystal radius that keeps autocollimation ring district III is not when becoming 0.185a and since the autocollimation frequency be 0.255~0.26a/ λ not in bandgap range, thereby the light of input is directly along the output of B port, its result as shown in Figure 6.Their stable state is propagated field pattern shown in Fig. 8-9.In view of optical add/drop filter is core parts in optical communication and the optical sensor system, we have also considered suitable modulation scheme is introduced in autocollimation ring district's waveguide of the present invention.For example, add electrode, thereby cause the suitable drift in autocollimation district, finally cause the drift of road wavelength down, the result as shown in figure 10, following road wavelength can and drift about to the long wavelength along with the increase of ring district refractive index.Suppose refractive index be 3.59 o'clock be that electrode is in closed condition, the corresponding through-put power of D port is 0.979, when electrode is worked, is 3.61 o'clock such as refractive index, the corresponding through-put power of D port is 0.168.If further optimal design can be accomplished that fully this moment, through-put power was 0, thereby be realized good light switch function.
The present invention only is illustrated with square crystal lattice 2 D photon crystal.From above-mentioned elaboration as can be known, this structure can be generalized to other lattice arrangement such as triangular crystal lattice and two-dimensional flat plate photonic crystal but to those skilled in the art.
