Dispersive properties of finite, one-dimensional photonic band gap structures: applications to nonlinear quadratic interactions.
We discuss the linear dispersive properties of finite one-dimensional photonic band-gap structures. We introduce the concept of a complex effective index for structures of finite length, derived from a generalized dispersion equation that identically satisfies the Kramers-Kronig relations. We then address the conditions necessary for optimal, phase-matched, resonant second harmonic generation. ...
متن کاملPhotonic band-gap structures
The analogy between electromagnetic wave propagation in multidimensionally periodic structures and electronwave propagation in real crystals has proven to be a fruitful one. Initial efforts were motivated by the prospect of a photonic band gap, a frequency band in three-dimensional dielectric structures in which electromagnetic waves are forbidden irrespective of the propagation direction in sp...
متن کاملOptical solitary waves in two- and three-dimensional nonlinear photonic band-gap structures
We present a detailed analysis of finite energy solitary waves in twoand three-dimensional nonlinear periodic structures exhibiting a complete photonic band gap. Solitary waves in photonic crystals with a twodimensional ~2D! square and triangular symmetry group as well as a 3D fcc symmetry group are described in terms of an effective nonlinear Dirac equation derived using the slowly varying env...
متن کاملTwo-dimensional photonic band-gap structures as quasi-metals.
By considering waves that propagate out of the transverse plane, we show that common high-index materials (e.g., GaAs) with a two-dimensional array of air holes can act in some ways as three-dimensional photonic band-gap structures. In particular, we describe a dielectric quasi-metal that ref lects all propagating light incident from free space.
متن کاملPulse-driven switching in one-dimensional nonlinear photonic band gap materials: a numerical study
We numerically examine the time-dependent properties of nonlinear bistable multilayer structures for constant wave illumination. We find that our system exhibits both steady-state and self-pulsing solutions. In the steady-state regime, we examine the dynamics of driving the system between different transmission states by injecting pulses, and we find optimal pulse parameters. We repeat this wor...
