Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to an optical device based on a two-dimensional topological photonic crystal singular point, and an implementation method and application thereof.
Background
A two-dimensional photonic crystal system is an important platform of micro-nano photonics, a photonic band gap is generated under the modulation effect of a periodic structure on incident electromagnetic waves, light with frequency in the photonic band gap cannot be transmitted, and the light is limited at the boundary or defect of the system, so that devices such as boundary state or defect state waveguides, micro-cavities and the like can be constructed. The manufacturing precision is limited in micro-nano processing, and defects and impurities in the device can cause light backscattering, so that the performance of the device is restricted; in addition, the photonic crystal line defect waveguide generates serious scattering under the condition of large-angle bending, and the application of the photonic crystal line defect waveguide in an optical information processing device is limited. The simultaneous degeneracy of the system's eigenvalues and eigenvectors at the EP (singular) point is generally applicable to high sensitivity sensing, generation of single mode low threshold lasers, on-chip opto-isolators, non-reciprocal mode converters, and construction of optical amplifiers. The structures such as the reflector and the Sagnac loop mirror are not beneficial to on-chip photonic integration due to the characteristics of large size and incompatibility, the mode of adjusting reflectivity and reflection phase is complex, the requirement on an experimental platform is high, and the operation and the realization are difficult. Whispering gallery microcavities are extremely sensitive to sidewall roughness, ambient environment, and preparation cleanliness, as foreign particles or rough sidewalls can cause mode changes, resulting in shifting, cleaving, and broadening. Therefore, the method for realizing the EP point by using the traditional echo wall microcavity, the waveguide and the reflecting device has the limitations that the complexity of adjusting the reflectivity and the reflecting phase is included, the system does not meet the requirements of an on-chip integrated photonic structure, the preparation accuracy is high, and the like.
The photonic crystal with the topological protection energy band in the inverted space is also called as a photonic topological insulator, the topological protection ensures that the topological boundary state waveguide and the microcavity have strong robustness, and the robustness of the topological boundary state waveguide can ensure strict one-way transmission even under the condition of large-angle bending and has the property of immunity to local defects and impurities; the robustness of the topological boundary state microcavity is realized in that the characteristic frequency of the microcavity cannot be disturbed as long as the area is unchanged even if the shape of the microcavity is different. In addition C6vThe symmetrical topological photonic crystal has the property of spin-orbit locking, the pseudo spin direction of the photon is locked with the transmission direction of light on the topological waveguide, namely, one pseudo spin direction corresponds to one lightThe two boundary states locked with the pseudo spin direction can be respectively transmitted to two opposite directions, and the two opposite directions respectively correspond to the pseudo spin direction of the photon to be upward and the pseudo spin direction to be downward; the topological boundary state microcavity has multiple characteristic frequencies which can be divided into a traveling wave mode and a standing wave mode, the phenomenon different from the coupling of the traditional microcavity and a waveguide can be generated after the topological boundary state microcavity is coupled with the topological boundary state waveguide, the pseudo spin of photons is not changed when the traveling wave mode is coupled, the photons are still transmitted along the locked track direction, the pseudo spin of the photons is reversed when the standing wave mode is coupled, so that the transmission direction along the track is changed, the phenomenon similar to reflection is realized, and the reflectivity and the reflection phase can be controlled by changing the coupling condition.
The protection of the topological photon energy band greatly improves the performance of the scheme of realizing the EP point by using the topological boundary state waveguide and the microcavity, meets the requirement of on-chip photon integration, is not influenced by local defects and lattice disorder of a sample structure, has higher tolerance on the defects caused by the limitation of micro-nano processing precision, and has important application prospect in the field of on-chip integrated photon chips.
The micro-nano optical waveguide and the reflector can enable the echo wall micro-cavity to work at an EP point, and have the functions of an optical amplifier and a sensitive sensor, however, the structure is very sensitive to the roughness of the side wall of the micro-cavity, and the mode of the micro-cavity is very easy to be influenced, so that the structure is limited by the precision of micro-nano processing, the structure of the reflector is not beneficial to on-chip photonic integration, and the reflectivity of the reflector is not adjustable. Although the Sagnac loop mirror can adjust parameters such as reflectivity and the like, the Sagnac loop mirror has high requirements on an experimental platform and also does not meet the requirements of an on-chip integrated photonic chip.

Boundary state microcavities have two types of characteristic frequencies: the device comprises a traveling wave mode and a standing wave mode, wherein the traveling wave mode is two degenerate frequencies and respectively corresponds to energy flow to rotate clockwise and anticlockwise along the microcavity, the standing wave mode is two splitting frequencies, the six 120-degree included angles of the hexagonal boundary state microcavity cause the energy flow to be emitted outwards perpendicular to the standing wave mode boundary state microcavity. Light with a specific pseudo spin direction is transmitted to the one-dimensional boundary state waveguide through the input waveguide corresponding to the photon pseudo spin direction; if the frequency of the light is not the same as any characteristic frequency of the boundary-state microcavity, the one-dimensional boundary-state waveguide and the zero-dimensional boundary-state microcavity are not coupled, and the light is output along the waveguide; if the frequency of the light is the same as one characteristic frequency of the boundary state microcavity, the one-dimensional boundary state waveguide is coupled with the zero-dimensional boundary state microcavity, when the characteristic frequency of the boundary state microcavity which is the same as the frequency of the light is the characteristic frequency of a traveling wave mode, traveling wave mode coupling occurs, the light with pseudo spin is coupled to the boundary state microcavity from the boundary state waveguide and then is coupled to the boundary state waveguide from the boundary state microcavity, the transmission direction is always locked with the pseudo spin and cannot be changed, and finally the light is output from the output waveguide along the direction which is the same as the transmission direction of the boundary state of the pseudo spin locking during incidence; when the characteristic frequency of the boundary state microcavity which is the same as the frequency of the light is the characteristic frequency of the standing wave mode, standing wave mode coupling occurs, when the light with certain pseudo spin is coupled to the boundary state microcavity from the boundary state waveguide, the pseudo spin is inverted, when the light is coupled to the boundary state waveguide from the boundary state microcavity, the transmission direction of the light on the boundary state locked with the pseudo spin is inverted, and finally the light is output from the output waveguide along the direction opposite to the transmission direction of the boundary state locked with the pseudo spin during incidence. Photon pseudo spin inversion caused by coupling between the standing wave modes of the boundary state waveguide and the boundary state microcavity resembles reflection and the reflectivity can be changed by the distance between the boundary state waveguide and the boundary state microcavity.
