The constituted mode of unconventional single mode waveguide (4), it is different from the conventional method for introducing line defect, but by changing Come what is realized, such structure more conveniently carries out the adjustment that matches to the radius and refractive index of dielectric posts.
Conventional single mode waveguide (2) is a kind of symmetrical connected mode, such knot with the connected mode of conventional multi-mode waveguide (3) Structure is conducive to the reflection loss caused by mode mismatch when suppressing light wave by two waveguides.
Mode division multiplexing/demultiplexer based on dimensional square lattice photonic crystal with hollow rod type photonic crystal is situated between including Two dimensional square lattice Matter column type photonic crystal, conventional single mode waveguide section, conventional multi-mode waveguide section, unconventional single mode waveguide area, Mode Coupling area.The mould Dividing the multiplex process of multiplexing demultiplexing device is:A branch of basic mode light is incident along conventional single mode waveguide, and another Shu Jimo light along Unconventional single mode waveguide is incident, and two row's dielectric posts are separated by between conventional single mode waveguide and unconventional single mode waveguide.Due to basic mode light Effective refractive index in conventional single mode waveguide and unconventional single mode waveguide, so hardly occurring between two beam basic mode light Coupling.In Mode Coupling area, due to effective refractive index of the basic mode light beam in unconventional single mode waveguide with First-Order Mode light beam normal Effective refractive index in rule multimode waveguide is equal, meets phase-matching condition, so the basic mode propagated in unconventional single mode waveguide Light passes through to be coupled into conventional multi-mode waveguide and be transformed into First-Order Mode during Mode Coupling area;And basic mode light beam is in unconventional single mode Effective refractive index and effective refractive index of the basic mode light beam in conventional multi-mode waveguide in waveguide, are unsatisfactory for phase matched bar Part, so not coupled when the basic mode light beam propagated in conventional multi-mode waveguide is by coupled zone.So just realize two kinds The multiplexing of pattern.Demultiplexing is the inverse process of multiplexing.
Beneficial effect:A kind of photonic crystal mode division multiplexing based on dimensional square lattice photonic crystal with hollow rod type proposed by the present invention/ Demultiplexer, it is possible to achieve double mode multiplexing and demultiplexing.The multiplexing demultiplexing device is in dimensional square lattice photonic crystal with hollow rod type light In sub- crystal, unconventional single mode waveguide is constituted by the radius and refractive index that change dielectric posts, and enable to different mode Between reach phase-matching condition, it is achieved thereby that efficient Mode Coupling.Between conventional single mode waveguide and conventional multi-mode waveguide Symmetrical connected mode is used, the efficiency of transmission of light wave is effectively improved.The device can well meet following collection high Into the demand of, the mode division multiplexing optical communication system of Large Copacity.

Specific embodiment
Mode division multiplexing/demultiplexer based on dimensional square lattice photonic crystal with hollow rod type photonic crystal includes tetragonal structure light Sub- crystal (1), conventional single mode waveguide (2), conventional multi-mode waveguide (3), unconventional single mode waveguide (4), Mode Coupling (5);Wherein, Two dimensional square lattice photonic crystal (1) is along X-Z plane periodic distribution.Conventional single mode waveguide (2) is by removing a row What dielectric posts were constituted, conventional multi-mode waveguide (3) is constituted by removing three row's dielectric posts, and unconventional single mode waveguide (4) is logical Cross change dielectric posts radius and refractive index size constitute.Conventional single mode waveguide and conventional multi-mode waveguide are used and symmetrically connected Connect mode.There is a Mode Coupling (5) between conventional multi-mode waveguide (3) and unconventional single mode waveguide (4), coupling length is 5 lattice parameters.Photonic crystal mode division multiplexing based on dimensional square lattice photonic crystal with hollow rod type proposed by the present invention/demultiplexer is passed Defeated wavelength is 1550nm.
Design parameter is:A=0.53 μm of lattice parameter, R=0.0954 μm of medium column radius, silicon medium refraction index n= 3.4;R=0.1007 μm of medium column radius in unconventional single mode waveguide area, refractive index n '=1.55, its dielectric material is quartz; Mode Coupling section length is 5 lattice parameters.
Operation principle based on photonic crystal mode division multiplexing/demultiplexer is as follows:The introducing of line defect, it is light wave to be substantially Transmission provide waveguide, enable the light wave that frequency falls in the range of forbidden photon band by line defect.Conventional single mode waveguide and The symmetrical connected mode of conventional multi-mode waveguide, inhibits the reflection loss caused by mode mismatch well.Adjust unconventional list The radius and refractive index of dielectric posts in mould waveguide so that effective refractive index of the basic mode in unconventional single mode waveguide exists with First-Order Mode Effective refractive index in conventional multi-mode waveguide is equal, meets phase-matching condition, and now basic mode light can be from unconventional single mode ripple First-Order Mode is coupled into conventional multi-mode waveguide and is transformed into leading.By choosing suitable coupling length, pattern coupling can be improved Close efficiency.
Multiplex process is as follows:A branch of basic mode light is incident along conventional single mode waveguide (2), and another Shu Jimo light is along very Rule single mode waveguide (4) are incident, and two row's dielectric posts are separated by between conventional single mode waveguide and unconventional single mode waveguide.Because basic mode light exists Effective refractive index in conventional single mode waveguide and unconventional single mode waveguide, so hardly there is coupling between two beam basic mode light Close.In Mode Coupling area (5), due to effective refractive index of the basic mode light beam in unconventional single mode waveguide with First-Order Mode light beam normal Effective refractive index in rule multimode waveguide (3) is equal, meets phase-matching condition, so propagated in unconventional single mode waveguide Basic mode light passes through to be coupled into conventional multi-mode waveguide and be transformed into First-Order Mode during Mode Coupling area;And basic mode light beam is unconventional Effective refractive index and effective refractive index of the basic mode light beam in conventional multi-mode waveguide in single mode waveguide, are unsatisfactory for phase With condition, so not coupled when the basic mode light beam propagated in conventional multi-mode waveguide is by coupled zone.As described above, so Just the multiplexing of both of which is realized.Demultiplexing process is the inverse process of multiplex process.
