Two-dimensional tunable photonic crystals
نویسندگان
چکیده
We call a photonic crystal tunable if its spectrum can be altered by an external electric or magnetic field. One of the two constitutive components of the proposed periodic composite structure has either electric permittivity or magnetic permeability dependent on the external electric or magnetic field. Consequently, the electromagnetic spectrum of the photonic crystal can be altered over a wide range by the external quasistationary uniform field. The tunable photonic crystal exhibits some useful features reminiscent of those accompanying the well-known electronic topological phase transitions in metals. Thorough theoretical analysis of a two-dimensional tetragonal periodical structure is undertaken. This specific periodic structure exhibits the most important features of a tunable photonic crystal. @S0163-1829~98!06305-X#

An electro-optic tunable single and multi-channel optical filter based on one-dimensional defective photonic crystal (1DDPC) structure is proposed. A couple of externally tunable defects in arrangement of (AB)5D1(BA)D2(BA)5, where A and B are dielectric materials, D1 and D2 are the tunable defects are used. The defects are composed of the ferroelectric LiNbO3 crystals and two pairs of thin Ag l...

In this paper a new optical channel drop filter (CDF) based on two dimensional (2-D) photonic crystals (PhC) with hexagonal shaped structure is proposed and numerically demonstrated by using the finite-difference-time-domain (FDTD) and plane-wave-expansion (PWE) techniques. Photonic crystals (PhCs) are artificial dielectric nanostructure materials in which a periodic modulation of the material ...

Results show that by stacking two magnetic photonic crys...
