Optical trapping near a photonic crystal.
We show that the photonic confinement induced by a photonic crystal can be exploited to trap nanoparticles. As demonstrated by the recent advances in the design and fabrication of photonic crystals slab structures, total internal reflection and multiple scattering can be combined to confine photons very efficiently. A consequence of this confinement is the existence of strong gradients of elect...
متن کاملA New Proposal for 4-to-2 Optical Encoder Using Nonlinear Photonic Crystal Ring Resonators
In this paper, we proposed an all optical 4-to-2 encoder that has 4 input and 3 output ports. This device generates a 2 bit binary code based on which input port is active. We used nonlinear photonic crystal ring resonators along with optical power splitter for realizing the proposed encoder. In this device the switching rate and area are obtained about 333 GHz and 612µm2 respectively.
متن کاملPhotonic Crystal-Based Polarization Converter for Optical Communication Applications
A photonic crystal-based TE to TM polarization converter for integrated optical communication is proposed in this paper. The photonic crystal consists of air circular-holes in slab waveguide. The radius of holes are determined to be 291nm having lattice constant of 640nm using the gap map and band diagram. The polarization converter is composed of an InGaAsP triangular-shaped waveguide on SiO2 ...
متن کاملDesign of Photonic Crystal Cavities for Extreme Light Concentration
The fields of photonic crystals and plasmonics have taken two different approaches to increasing light−matter interaction. Photonic crystal cavities increase temporal confinement of light in a material, as represented by their high quality factor, while plasmonic structures increase spatial confinement, as represented by their low mode volume. However, the inability to simultaneously attain ext...
متن کاملResonant optical trapping in microfluidic-integrated hollow photonic crystal cavities
The recent years have highlighted the potential of photonic nanostructures to extend the capabilities of optical tweezers and to perform advanced optical manipulations. In this context, two-dimensional photonic crystal cavities have been regarded as promising candidates owing to their high quality factors and low mode volumes. The work presented in this thesis reports the setting up of a comple...
