Optical properties of high-order band gaps in one-dimensional photonic crystal
2012
Abstract Plane wave expansion method and transfer matrix method have been used to study the optical properties of eighty ninth photonic band gaps (PBGs) in one dimensional photonic crystal (1DPCs) with a form of Si (air|Si) 8 . The results show that high order PBGs (HR-PBGs) in normalize dispersion curves have slower convergence speed than low order PBGs (LR-PBGs) and appear periodic detergency phenomena with the increasing of Λ/λ values (where Λ is the constant of one dimensional lattice and λ is wavelength) and their band widths and central wavelengths are more sensitive to fabrication errors than that of LR-PBG. Finally, some special forms of Si (air|Si) 8 structure with input and output rib waveguides are fabricated on Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) materials by semiconductor micromachining technology. By measuring and analyzing their insertion loss spectra, we demonstrate that the HR-PBGs of 1DPCs also have the potential application in integration optics.
