Duplexer using microwave photonic band gap structure
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a frequency selective duplexer using microwave photonic band gap ~PBG! structures. It uses two different PBGs to control the propagation of electromagnetic waves in the microwave region. In this structure, an additional narrow reflection band appears in the transmission spectrum when the PBG structure is not properly located relative to the T junction. By considering multiple reflections, it is proved that this additional reflection band in each PBG structure results from the interference between the input wave and the reflected wave from the other PBG structure. An effective way to prevent this interference effect is also discussed. © 2000 American Institute of Physics. @S0003-6951~00!04316-3#

Band Structure and Dispersion Properties of Photonic Quasicrystals
In this paper, for developing analytical and semi-analytical methods to evaluate band structure in photonic quasicrystals the perturbation theory is examined. It is shown that more isotropic and complete photonic band gap can be observed under low dielectric contrast for photonic quasicrystals in comparison with ordinary crystals and because of this feature of photonic quasicrystals, perturbati...
متن کاملDesign and Analysis of a Novel Hexagonal Shaped Channel Drop Filter Based on Two-Dimensional Photonic Crystals
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 ...
متن کاملA New Method for Calculating Propagation Modes of a One Dimensional Photonic Crystal (RESEARCH NOTE)
Photonic band-gap (PBG) crystals offer new dimensions of freedom in controlling propagation of electromagnetic waves. The existence of stop-bands in the transmission characteristic of these crystals makes them a suitable element for the realization of many useful microwave and optical subsystems. In this paper, we calculate the propagation constant of a one-dimensional (1-D) photonic crystal by...

In this research, we have studied the photonic band structure, optical properties and thermal emission spectrum of 2D Silicon photonic crystal with hexagonal structure. The band structure, band gap map and the gap size versus radius have been calculated by plane wave expansion method. The maximum band gap size of TE (TM) polarization and the complete gap size are 51% (20%) and 17% at air hole r...
متن کاملThe effect of cationic surfactant on the structure, morphology and optical band gap of ferrites synthesized by a microwave sol–gel auto-combustion method
Cu and Ni ferrites as the semiconductor materials were synthesized by a microwave sol-gel auto-combustion method. Two cationic surfactants, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), were applied and the influence of surfactants on the properties of the Cu and Ni ferrite particles was studied. The samples were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) pattern,...
