Antiresonant reflecting photonic crystal optical waveguides.
We propose a simple analytical theory for low-index core photonic bandgap optical waveguides based on an antiresonant reflecting guidance mechanism. We identify a new regime of guidance in which the spectral properties of these structures are largely determined by the thickness of the high-index layers and the refractive-index contrast and are not particularly sensitive to the period of the cla...
متن کاملOptimized Silicon Antiresonant Reflecting Optical Waveguides for Sensing Applications
The development of an evanescent field sensor with an integrated Mach–Zehnder interferometric (MZI) configuration requires the fabrication of optical waveguides with two main characteristics: 1) monomode behavior and 2) high surface sensitivity for sensing biomolecular interactions in a direct way (without labels). In this paper, we present an experimental study for the optimization of the diff...
متن کاملFabrication of fully integrated antiresonant reflecting optical waveguides using the femtosecond laser direct-write technique.
Utilizing a recently developed two-step fabrication process, we have experimentally demonstrated what is to the best of our knowledge the first ever integrated antiresonant reflecting optical waveguide (ARROW), directly inscribed into bulk optical glass. The waveguide consists of an array of high-index contrast rods that surround an unmodified core. The transmission spectrum reveals the formati...
متن کاملPedestal antiresonant reflecting waveguides for robust coupling to microsphere resonators and for microphotonic circuits.
Strip-line pedestal antiresonant reflecting waveguides are high-confinement, silica integrated optical waveguides in which the optical modes are completely isolated from the substrate by thin high-index layers. These waveguides are particularly well suited for whispering-gallery mode excitation in high-Q microspheres. They can also be used in microphotonic circuits, such as for microring resona...
متن کاملTHz wave transmission within the metal-clad antiresonant reflecting hollow waveguides
We present the transmission characteristics of THz waves in the metal-clad antiresonant reflecting hollow waveguides. We have derived the equation for the blueshift of the resonance frequency. The effects of the waveguide structure on the blueshift of the resonance frequency are studied comprehensively. In particular, we find that the blueshift of the resonance frequency is strongly affected by...
