Photonic defect modes of cholesteric liquid crystals.
We investigate defect modes of cholesteric liquid crystals as photonic band gap materials. For normal incidence of light, cholesteric liquid crystals exhibit total reflection for the circular polarization with the same handedness as that of cholesteric helix. However, the other orthogonal component is completely transmitted. When we replace a thin layer of liquid crystal by an isotropic materia...
متن کاملSelf-trapping and stable localized modes in nonlinear photonic crystals.
We predict the existence of stable nonlinear localized modes near the band edge of a two-dimensional reduced-symmetry photonic crystal with a Kerr nonlinearity. Employing the technique based on the Green function, we reveal a physical mechanism of the mode stabilization associated with the effective nonlinear dispersion and long-range interaction in the photonic crystals.
متن کاملBloch modes and self-localized waveguides in nonlinear photonic crystals
We present a modeling technique that uses eigenmode expansion to simulate infinite periodic structures with Kerr nonlinearity. Using a unit cell with Bloch boundary conditions, our iterative algorithm efficiently calculates self-consistent two-dimensional Bloch modes. We show how it can be used to study the band structure of nonlinear photonic crystals and to gain rapid insight in the operation...
متن کاملSlab-edge modes in two-dimensional photonic crystals
We demonstrate the existence of surface waves in two-dimensional photonic crystal slab edges. In finite-sized air-terminated photonic crystal boundaries, the slab-edge mode turns into a lasing mode under pulsed optical pumping conditions. Analyses of the modal behaviors of the slab-edge modes by means of calculations based on the plane wave expansion method and the finite-difference time-domain...
متن کاملLiquid Crystals into Planar Photonic Crystals
In the last decade, great effort has been devoted to the study of photonic crystals (PhCs), which are a new class of artificial materials that consist of a periodic arrangement of dielectric or metallic elements in one, two or three dimensions (see Figs. 1-2). The periodicity of these dielectric structures affects the properties of photons in the same way as the periodic potential affects the p...
