Bandgap properties of two-dimensional low-index photonic crystals
We study the bandgap properties of twodimensional photonic crystals created by a lattice of rods or holes conformed in a symmetric or asymmetric triangular structure. Using the plane-wave analysis, we calculate a minimum value of the refractive index contrast for opening both partial and full two-dimensional spectral gaps for both TM and TE polarized waves. We also analyze the effect of ellipti...
متن کاملAnomalous index of refraction in photonic bandgap materials
Near the gap in a photonic bandgap material the effective index of refraction can become less than unity and in fact can approach zero at the band edge itself-leading to ultra-refractive optical effects . We illustrate this effect quantitatively in a simple one-dimensional Kronig-Penney model of a threedimensional bandgap structure . As a complement to index-enhancing schemes involving lasing w...
متن کاملThermal tuning of silicon-based one-dimensional photonic bandgap structures
Thermal tuning of silicon-based one-dimensional photonic bandgap microcavities is demonstrated. Thermally induced spectral shifts are caused by both the host silicon matrix and the optically active material infiltrated inside the photonic bandgap structures. The active material leads to the dominant thermal tuning contribution but the effect of the silicon matrix cannot be neglected. The intera...
متن کاملCoupled optical microcavities in one-dimensional photonic bandgap structures
We present a detailed theoretical and experimental study of the evanescent coupled optical microcavity modes in one-dimensional photonic bandgap structures. The coupled-cavity samples are fabricated by depositing alternating hydrogenated amorphous silicon nitride and silicon oxide layers. Splitting of the eigenmodes and formation of a defect band due to interaction between the neighbouring loca...
متن کاملLow-loss one-dimensional photonic bandgap filter in (110) silicon.
A free-space silicon one-dimensional photonic bandgap optical filter is designed and fabricated. A two-stage (110) wafer etching process is employed to form the extremely vertical, smooth, and high-aspect-ratio features that are essential for good optical properties. The (111) oriented planes of the wafer form <0.01 degrees off-vertical trenches that make up the Fabry-Perot filter. A simulation...
