A New Design of Photonic Crystal Filter and Power Splitter Based on Ring Resonators
Here, we propose an optical filter and an optical power splitter based on two-dimensionalphotonic crystal all circular ring resonators. These structures are made of a square lattice ofsilicon rods with the refractive index n1=3.464 surrounded by air (with refractive indexn2=1). First, we have designed the filter and by using that, we designed a power splitter. Thetransmission efficiency and Qua...

In this paper, we proposed an all optical 4-to-2 encoder that has 4 input and 3 output ports. This device generates a 2 bit binary code based on which input port is active. We used nonlinear photonic crystal ring resonators along with optical power splitter for realizing the proposed encoder. In this device the switching rate and area are obtained about 333 GHz and 612µm2 respectively.
