Transmission of slow light through photonic crystal waveguide bends.
The spectral dependence of the bending loss of cascaded 60 degrees bends in photonic crystal (PhC) waveguides is explored in a slab-type silicon-on-insulator system. An ultralow bending loss of (0.05 +/- 0.03) dB/bend is measured at wavelengths corresponding to the nearly dispersionless transmission regime. In contrast, the PhC bend is found to become completely opaque for wavelengths correspon...
متن کاملPlanar photonic crystal waveguide biosensor
We present protein detection using a planar photonic crystal waveguide sensor. Experimental results of refractive index measurements show good agreement with simulations. The sensor has been used for protein detection and showed successful detection with excellent signal to noise ratio of proteins with concentrations around 10 μg/ml (0.15μMolar). Introduction In the past 20 years, the research...
متن کاملApodized photonic crystal waveguide gratings.
Apodized photonic crystal (PC) waveguide gratings are proposed to suppress sidelobes which appear in reflection spectra of usual PC waveguide gratings. By using specific functions (Gauss and Gauss-cosine functions) for the longitudinal refractive index distribution, it is possible to suppress sidelobes in the reflection spectra of PC waveguide gratings efficiently. The apodization is realized b...
متن کاملParallel microgenetic algorithm design for photonic crystal and waveguide structures.
We have developed a powerful parallel genetic algorithm design tool for photonic crystal and waveguide structures. The tool employs a small-population-size genetic algorithm (microgenetic algorithm) for global optimization and a two-dimensional finite-difference time-domain method to rigorously design and optimize the performance of photonic devices. We discuss the implementation and performanc...
متن کاملDesign of low-dispersion fractal photonic crystal fiber
In this paper, a fractal photonic crystal fiber (F-PCF) based on the 1st iteration of Koch fractal configuration for optical communication systems is presented. Complex structure of fractal shape is build up through replication of a base shape. Nowadays, fractal shapes are used widely in antenna topics and its usage in PCF has not been investigated yet. The purpose of this research is to compar...
