in this paper, a photonic crystal waveguide with point defects and lattice constant perturbations of +5%, -5% are being investigated. firstly waveguide structures with constant and specific parameters are being studied and photonic band gap diagrams for te/tm modes are depicted; then pulse propagation in the frequencies available in the band gap are shown. after that, effects of parameters like...

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 ...

in this article, the effect of cells' radius on the behavior of wavelength switching optical filter andthe effect of the radius of the optical filters' key characteristics such as wavelength resonance onan optical filter based on photonic crystals, have been investigated. currently, the most commonapplied mechanism for designing optical filter based on photonic crystals is using twomechanisms s...

In a ring laser gyroscope, due to the rotation and the Sagnac effect, a phase difference between the two counter-propagating beams is generated. In this device, the higher phase difference between these two beams causes the better the interference pattern detection, and thus the sensitivity is increased. In this paper, the effect of inserting a dielectric-graphene photonic crystal inside a ring...

Photonic crystal design procedure for negative refraction has so far been based on trial and error. In this paper, for the first time, a novel and systematic design procedure based on physical and mathematical properties of photonic crystals is proposed to design crystal equi-frequency contours (EFCs) to produce negative refraction. The EFC design is performed by the help of rectangular stair-c...

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...

designing a power splitter with five ports has been shown in this article. in order to prevent the direct coupling between waveguides, a t-shaped structure with an appropriate distance has been used. the coupling between the parallel photonic crystal waveguides is based on multimode interference, while selecting the output efficiency is performed by setting the refractive coefficients and radiu...
