Extrinsic optical scattering loss in photonic crystal waveguides: role of fabrication disorder and photon group velocity.
Formulas are presented that provide clear physical insight into the phenomenon of extrinsic optical scattering loss in photonic crystal waveguides due to random fabrication imperfections such as surface roughness and disorder. Using a photon Green-function-tensor formalism, we derive explicit expressions for the backscattered and total transmission losses. Detailed calculations for planar photo...
متن کاملAnomalous propagation loss in photonic crystal waveguides.
Propagation loss can occur in photonic crystal waveguides without complete optical confinement. We employ a highly efficient transfer-matrix method which allows for accurate and reliable extraction of the propagation loss even at an extremely low level. The results for a two-dimensional photonic crystal waveguide shows that the loss exponentially decays via the waveguide wall thickness. An anom...
متن کاملGroup velocity dependence of propagation losses in single-line-defect photonic crystal waveguides on GaAs membranes - Electronics Letters
Introduction: Two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystal (PC) waveguides are expected to be one of the significant platforms in future optical communication networks. To date, much effort has been devoted to the light guidance by 2D-PC line-defect waveguides that achieve a 3D optical confinement by use of a combination of the photonic bandgap and total internal reflection [1–5], and small propagatio...
متن کاملInfluence of the group-velocity on the pulse propagation in 1D silicon photonic crystal waveguides
We present a detailed analysis of the influence of the group velocity (GV) on the dynamics of optical pulses upon their propagation in one-dimensional photonic crystal waveguides (PhCW). The theoretical model used in our analysis incorporates the linear optical properties of the PhCW (GV dispersion and optical losses), free-carrier (FC) effects (FC dispersion and FC-induced optical losses) and ...
متن کاملExtremely large group-velocity dispersion of line-defect waveguides in photonic crystal slabs.
We reveal experimentally waveguiding characteristics and group-velocity dispersion of line defects in photonic crystal slabs as a function of defect widths. The defects have waveguiding modes with two types of cutoff within the photonic band gap. Interference measurements show that they exhibit extraordinarily large group dispersion, and we found waveguiding modes whose traveling speed is 2 ord...
