چکیده
We have microfabricated 2-D photonic bandgap structures in a thin slab of dielectric material to define reflectors and high-Q microresonators. By selectively omitting holes from the two-dimensional photonic crystal, laser cavities and optical resonator switches can be defined. We have designed this structure with a finite diffe:rence time domain (FDTD) approach, and demonstrate some promising designs in InGaAsDnGaAsP multiple quantum well material with emission wavelength of 1.55 microns

InGaAsP photonic band gap crystal membrane microresonators*
We have microfabricated two-dimensional ~2D! photonic band gap structures in a thin slab of dielectric material to define reflectors and high-Q microresonators. By selectively omitting holes from the 2D photonic crystal, optical microcavities, and in-plane microresonator switches can be defined. We have designed this structure with a finite difference time domain approach, and demonstrate the e...
متن کاملPhotonic Crystal-Based Polarization Converter for Optical Communication Applications
A photonic crystal-based TE to TM polarization converter for integrated optical communication is proposed in this paper. The photonic crystal consists of air circular-holes in slab waveguide. The radius of holes are determined to be 291nm having lattice constant of 640nm using the gap map and band diagram. The polarization converter is composed of an InGaAsP triangular-shaped waveguide on SiO2 ...
متن کاملThermal analysis of line-defect photonic crystal lasers.
We report a systematic study of thermal effects in photonic crystal membrane lasers based on line-defect cavities. Two material platforms, InGaAsP and InP, are investigated experimentally and numerically. Lasers with quantum dot layers embedded in an InP membrane exhibit lasing at room temperature under CW optical pumping, whereas InGaAsP membranes only lase under pulsed conditions. By varying ...
متن کاملDesign 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...
متن کاملInGaAsP photonic crystal nanocavities with a Fano line shape resonant at 1.55 μm
We fabricated and characterized InGaAsP photonic crystal nanocavities. By carefully tailoring the structural parameters, both an efficient coupling and a suitable Q-factor can be achieved. Depending on the design of the coupling region, sharp Fano lines may be observed.
