چکیده

We demonstrate photonic crystal nanobeam cavities that support both TE- and TM-polarized modes, each with a Q factor greater than one million and a mode volume on the order of the cubic wavelength. We show that these orthogonally polarized modes have a tunable frequency separation and a high nonlinear spatial overlap. We expect these cavities to have a variety of applications in resonance-enhanced nonlinear optics.

Design of Photonic Crystal Polarization Splitter on InP Substrate

In this article, we suggested a novel design of polarization splitter based on coupler waveguide on InP substrate at 1.55mm wavelength. Photonic crystal structure is consisted of two dimensional (2D) air holes embedded in InP/InGaAsP material with an effective refractive index of 3.2634 which is arranged in a hexagonal lattice. The photonic band gap (PBG) of this structure is determined using t...

Stimulated Raman amplification and lasing in silicon photonic band gap nanocavities

The concept and design of L5 photonic band gap nanocavities in two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystal (PhCs) slabs for enhancement of timulated Raman amplification and lasing in monolithic silicon is suggested for the first time. Specific high quality factor (Q) and small modal olume nanocavities are designed which supports the required pump–Stokes modal spacing in silicon, with ultra-low lasing...

Manipulation of Photons by Photonic Crystals

Photonic crystals, in which the refractive index changes periodically, provide an exciting tool for the manipulation of photons and have made substantial progresses in recent years. In this presentation, I will discuss recent progresses in photonic-crystal researches including (i) two-dimensional photonic-crystal cavities and waveguides, (ii) three-dimensional photonic crystals, and (iii) two-d...

Ultracompact high-efficiency polarizing beam splitter with a hybrid photonic crystal and conventional waveguide structure.

We propose an ultracompact high-efficiency polarizing beam splitter that operates over a wide wavelength range and is based on a hybrid photonic crystal and a conventional waveguide structure. Within a small area (15 microm x 10 microm), this polarizing beam splitter separates TM- and TE-polarized modes into orthogonal output waveguides. Results of simulations with the two-dimensional finite-di...

Investigating the Properties of an Optical Waveguide Based on Photonic Crystal with Point Defect and Lattice Constant Perturbation

In this paper, a photonic crystal waveguide with point defects and lattice constant perturbations of +5%, -5% are being investigated. Firstly waveguide structures with constant and specific parameters are being studied and photonic band gap diagrams for TE/TM modes are depicted; then pulse propagation in the frequencies available in the band gap are shown. After that, effects of parameters like...
