As shown in fig. 2, the structure of the magneto-optical modulator based on photonic crystal cross waveguide according to the present invention (including a bias circuit and a bias coil) comprises an electromagnet 8 for providing a bias magnetic field, a modulation current source 10 and a modulation signal 11, and the modulator further comprises a wire 9; one end of the electromagnet 8 is connected with the negative electrode of the modulation current source 10, and the other end of the electromagnet 8 is connected with the positive electrode of the modulation current source 10 through a lead 9; the modulation current source 10 is connected to a modulation signal 11. The modulator of the present invention employs a cartesian rectangular coordinate system as shown in fig. 1 and 3: the positive direction of the x axis is horizontal to the right; the positive direction of the y axis is vertical and upward; the positive z-axis direction is out of the plane of the paper.
As shown in fig. 3, the relevant parameters of the device are:
d1either a (lattice constant)
d20.3a (side length of square silicon column)
d30.2217a (Square defect medium column side length)
d40.3a (isosceles right triangle defect column waist length)
d51.2997a (distance from the hypotenuse of the defect post to the center of the defect post)
d61.577a (waveguide width and length)
The photonic crystal is a tetragonal lattice, the lattice constant is a, the side length of a dielectric column is 0.3a, when the square silicon dielectric column of the photonic crystal rotates anticlockwise by 41 degrees in the axis direction (z axis) of the reference dielectric column, a plane wave expansion method is adopted to obtain a TE forbidden band structure in the photonic crystal, the TE forbidden band of the photonic crystal is 0.3150-0.4548 (omega a/2 pi c), light waves of any frequency in the middle of the photonic crystal are limited in a waveguide, and after the square lattice dielectric column rotates anticlockwise by 41 degrees in the axis direction (z axis) of the reference dielectric column, a wider forbidden band range is obtained.
The silicon dielectric waveguide used in the present invention requires the deletion of one row and one column of dielectric pillars to form a cross waveguide. The waveguide plane is perpendicular to the axis of the dielectric pillar in the photonic crystal. By introducing a ferrite square column (a square defective dielectric column 7) at the intersection of the centers of the cross waveguides, the side length of the ferrite square column is 0.2217a, and the distance from the hypotenuse surface of 4 isosceles right triangle defective dielectric columns 6 to the axis of the ferrite square column (the square defective dielectric column 7) is 1.2997 a. The optical axis of the ferrite square column is consistent with the optical axis direction of the background medium column.
The description of the principles of the present invention is explained primarily in relation to magneto-optical media. Ferrite is a material with magnetic anisotropy, and the magnetic anisotropy of ferrite is induced by an external DC bias magnetic field. The magnetic field causes the magnetic dipoles in the ferrite to align in the same direction, thereby creating a resultant magnetic dipole moment and causing the magnetic dipoles to precess at a frequency controlled by the strength of the biasing magnetic field. The interaction with an external microwave signal can be controlled by adjusting the intensity of the bias magnetic field, so that the magneto-optical modulator of the photonic crystal cross waveguide is realized. Under the action of a bias magnetic field, the permeability tensor of the ferrite shows asymmetry, wherein the permeability [ mu ] of the ferrite tensor is as follows:
The elements of the permeability tensor are given by the following equation:
ω0=μ0γH0 (2)
ωm=μ0γMs (3)
ω=2πf (4)
wherein, mu0Is magnetic permeability in vacuum, gamma is gyromagnetic ratio, H0For application of a magnetic field, MSFor the saturation magnetization, for the operating frequency,p-k/μ is the normalized magnetization frequency, also called the separation factor, the parameters μ and k determining the different ferrite materials, a material with this form of permeability tensor is called gyromagnetic, H assuming the direction of bias is opposite0And MSThe sign will change so the direction of rotation will be opposite.
The bias magnetic field is generated by a bias electromagnet, and bias current is loaded in the bias electromagnet and is a modulation signal.
The magnitude of the bias magnetic field H is adjusted by the change of an external magnetic field according to sine wave shape, so that the magnetic conductivity is changed, the intensity of light output by the ports 2, 3 and 4 is changed, and the modulation of optical signals is realized.
Setting bias magnetic field H ═ H0+H1sin (nt), t epsilon (0,2 pi/n), and the value of n can be determined according to requirements. H varies according to a sinusoidal waveform law as shown in fig. 4. The sine waveform is equally divided into 20 segments in one period (called as a modulation period) and totally divided into 21 points, for the magnetic field value of each point, the magnetic permeability value is calculated, as shown in fig. 5, and the optical wave electric field amplitude of the channels 2, 3 and 4 is calculated, as shown in fig. 6.
Let parameter d3=0.2217a,d5=1.2997a,Ms=2.39×105[A/m]. When the normalized optical wave frequency ω a/2 π c is 0.4121, referring to FIG. 6, a modulation graph, which is a modulation graph of the optical wave electric field amplitude varying with the modulation magnetic field in one period, of the channels 2, 3, and 4, is obtained through simulation calculation, as shown in FIG. 7 (a). From the modulation curve, the modulation sensitivity, which is the derivative of the amplitude of the optical wave electric field in the channel to the amplitude of the modulation magnetic field, i.e. the slope of the modulation curve, can be found, see fig. 7 (b).
When the defects are introduced into the silicon dielectric column array waveguide, H is the magnetic field H0+H1At the time, the incident signal port is located at the position of the left port 1 shown in fig. 1, and the TE carrier optical signal is located at the port 1. Carrier optical signals are propagated in the waveguide formed by the dielectric column array of the silicon dielectric column 5, TE carrier optical signals completely pass through after reaching the defect position of the defect dielectric column 7, and finally the TE carrier optical signals are transmittedThe output port 4 is positioned to output, and the TE carrier optical signal is hardly output at the output positions of the ports 2 and 3. In a magnetic field H ═ H0-H1At the time, the incident signal port is located at the position of the left port 1 shown in fig. 1, and the TE carrier optical signal is located at the port 1. Carrier optical signals are propagated in a waveguide formed by a dielectric column array of the silicon dielectric column 5, TE carrier optical signals all pass through after reaching the defect position of the defect dielectric column 7, and finally the TE carrier optical signals are output at the output ports 2 and 3, and almost no TE carrier optical signals are output at the output port 4.
Therefore, the port 4 is used as a modulation output port, and the amplitude of the optical wave electric field of the port 4 channel under 21H values is plotted, i.e., a curve that the amplitude of the electric field passing through the optical wave changes with the modulation magnetic field is a modulation curve, which is shown in fig. 8 (a). The modulation sensitivity can be obtained from the modulation curve, and see fig. 8 (b). The modulation depth can also be determined from the modulation curve, where 2 (maximum electric field amplitude-minimum electric field amplitude)/(maximum electric field amplitude + minimum electric field amplitude)
As can be seen from fig. 8(b), the modulation sensitivity was 0.00181.
As can be seen from fig. 8(a), the modulation depth is 0.39356.
As can be seen from fig. 8(a), if a sinusoidal bias magnetic field is input to the modulation curve, the amplitude of the electric field at the port 4 changes approximately sinusoidally around the static operating point in the linear range, which indicates that the present study has a more ideal modulation effect.
The choice of lattice constant and operating wavelength can be determined in the following manner. By the formula
Normalized forbidden band frequency range of tetragonal silicon structure therein and in the present invention
fnorm=0.3150~0.4548 (8)
The corresponding forbidden band wavelength range is calculated as:
λ=2.1987a~3.1746a (9)
it follows that a value of λ satisfying a wavelength range in equal proportion thereto can be obtained by changing the value of the lattice constant a without considering the dispersion or the change of the material dispersion to be small. The operating wavelength can be tuned by the dielectric column-to-column lattice constant without regard to dispersion or with negligible dispersion.
