Compact Wavelength Demultiplexer via Photonic Crystal Multimode Resonators
Wavelength demultiplexers based on photonic crystal resonators are attractive, since they may be realized in very small sizes. However, existing designs have a limitation on the size, since they all require one resonator for each wavelength and these resonators must be separated. As a possible approach to reduce the size further, we show that a single multimode resonator may be used to separate...
متن کاملLiquid-Crystal Optical Switches
The optical switching times of liquid-crystal cells using 5CB, 5OCB and PCH5 liquid crystal materials have been characterized as a function of applied voltage, V, and temperature, T. The transition time from 90 to 10 % transmission scales as V and is limited to 50 to 30 ns by the breakdown electric field, ~ 10 V cm of the liquid crystal. The time from the initial voltage step to 90 % transmissi...
متن کاملLiquid-Crystal-Enabled Active Plasmonics: A Review
Liquid crystals are a promising candidate for development of active plasmonics due to their large birefringence, low driving threshold, and versatile driving methods. We review recent progress on the interdisciplinary research field of liquid crystal based plasmonics. The research scope of this field is to build the next generation of reconfigurable plasmonic devices by combining liquid crystal...
متن کاملPlasmonic crystal demultiplexer and multiports.
We report the realization of two-dimensional optical wavelength demultiplexers and multiports for surface plasmons polaritons (SPPs) based on plasmonic crystals, i.e., photonic crystals for SPPs. These SPP elements are built up of lithographically fabricated gold nanostructures on gold thin films. We show by direct imaging of laterally confined SPP beams in the visible spectral range by leakage...
متن کاملDWDM Technology for High Speed Optical Communications
The ever-increasing demand for applications in internet, digital cable TV, e-mail, data transmission etc. has forced the utilization of the available more than two THz transmission bandwidth of single-mode optical fiber at low loss and low dispersion window of 1550 nm. Most of the optical communication systems in use today range from 2.5 Gbit/s, 10 Gbit/s and 40 Gbit/s while 160 Gbit/s and 480 ...
