Robust topology optimization of three-dimensional photonic-crystal band-gap structures.
We perform full 3D topology optimization (in which "every voxel" of the unit cell is a degree of freedom) of photonic-crystal structures in order to find optimal omnidirectional band gaps for various symmetry groups, including fcc (including diamond), bcc, and simple-cubic lattices. Even without imposing the constraints of any fabrication process, the resulting optimal gaps are only slightly la...
متن کاملA new topology optimization algorithm for photonic band gap structures
A new topology optimization algorithm is proposed based on bi-directional evolutionary structural optimization (BESO) method in order to design photonic crystals with maximum band gaps. The optimization process starts from a simple unit cell without band gap, and the photonic crystals are assumed to be periodically composed of two materials with different permittivity. Based on finite element a...
متن کاملEmulation of two-dimensional photonic crystal defect modes in a photonic crystal with a three-dimensional photonic band gap
Using numerical simulations, we demonstrate the construction of two-dimensional~2D-! like defect modes in a recently proposed 3D photonic crystal structure. These modes, which are confined in all three dimensions by a complete photonic band gap, bear a striking similarity to those in 2D photonic crystals in terms of polarization, field profile, and projected band structures. It is expected that...
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 کاملTwo-dimensional phononic-photonic band gap optomechanical crystal cavity.
We present the fabrication and characterization of an artificial crystal structure formed from a thin film of silicon that has a full phononic band gap for microwave X-band phonons and a two-dimensional pseudo-band gap for near-infrared photons. An engineered defect in the crystal structure is used to localize optical and mechanical resonances in the band gap of the planar crystal. Two-tone opt...
