Photonic crystal ring resonators (PCRRs) are traditional structures fordesigning optical channel drop filters. In this paper, Photonic crystal channel drop filter(CDFs) with a new configuration of ring resonator is presented. The structure is made ofa square lattice of silicon rods with the refractive index nsi=3. 4 which are perforated inair with refractive index nair=1. Calculations of band s...

We report on a channel drop filter with a mode gap in the propagating mode of a photonic crystal slab that was fabricated on silicon on an insulator wafer. The results, simulated with the 3-dimensional finite-difference time-domain and plane-wave methods, demonstrated that an index-guiding mode for the line defect waveguide of a photonic crystal slab has a band gap at wave vector k = 0.5 for a ...

In the paper, a novel three-port channel drop filter in two dimensional photonic crystals (2D PCs) with a wavelength-selective reflection micro-cavity is proposed. In the structure, two micro-cavities are used. One is used for a resonant tunneling-based channel drop filter. The other is used to realize wavelength-selective reflection feedback in the bus wave-guide, which consists of a point def...

in this paper, a new design of optical channel drop filter based on two- dimensional photonic crystal ring resonators with triangular lattice is proposed. the rods of this structure is silicon with the refractive index nsi=3.46 and the surrounding environment is air with the refractive index of nair=1.the widest photonic band gap obtains for the filling ratio of r/a = 0.2. the filter’s transmis...

We have demonstrated the Šolc-type wavelength filters in a 52mm long periodically poled Ti diffused lithium niobate channel waveguide which has a domain period of 16.6μm. At room temperature, the center wavelength and the full-width at half maximum of the filter were about 1272.49nm and 0.23nm, respectively. The nearest side-lobe is about 7dB. New structure of optical add/drop multiplexer (OADM...

In this paper, a new design of optical channel drop filter based on two- dimensional photonic crystal ring resonators with triangular lattice is proposed.

We introduce a mechanism that provides an on/off switching capability in channel add-drop filter structures. These filters consist of two waveguides, a bus and a drop, coupled through a frequency-selective element. The switching functionality is achieved by incorporating materials with variable absorbing characteristics into the coupling element. When the variable material displays minimum abso...

In this design an optical ring resonator are embedded between two Horizontal input and output waveguides which has 4 orbitals around the center of the resonator so that each orbital consists of 8 rods with different size in which radius of larger orbitals rods are bigger than radius of smaller orbitals rods. The analysis of simulation results showed the proposed filter has the transmission effi...
