For the photonic crystal be not optimized 60 ° of curved waveguides, due to the reason such as strong reflection and patten transformation, the transmissivity from incoming wave to output waveguide is extremely low, and this has had a strong impact on the performance of wave multiplexer.And airport radius and position etc. around the corner drastically influence transmissivity and the bandwidth of curved waveguide.Significantly can improve the performance of curved waveguide by changing the parameters such as the radius of airport of corner and position, thus lay the foundation for the wave multiplexer obtaining high-transmission rate and high bandwidth.
For the y-type structure be not optimized when exporting use as input one end, two ends, due to the not independence of two ports and the effect of strong reflection, two-way light wave effectively can not be synthesized a route output terminal to export, but be exported from input waveguide by a large amount of light waves.And the radius of the airport of corner and position drastically influence this performance.Can obviously deal with problems by changing the parameters such as the radius of corner airport and position, then after it and 60 ° of curved waveguides are integrated optimization, thus obtain the wave multiplexer of high-transmission rate and high bandwidth.
