All-Optical Ultra compact Photonic Crystal Switch Based on Nonlinear Micro Ring Resonators
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper an all-optical switch has been proposed based on photonic crystal T-type ring resonator. The finite different time domain (FDTD) and plane wave extended (PWE) methods are used to analyze the behavior of the structure. The T-type ring resonator has a low switching time of about 0.95ps and low switching power equal to 156mW/μm 2 . Since the structure has a simple geometric shape with clear operating principle, it is potentially applicable for photonic integrated circuits.

In this paper, we proposed an all optical 4-to-2 encoder that has 4 input and 3 output ports. This device generates a 2 bit binary code based on which input port is active. We used nonlinear photonic crystal ring resonators along with optical power splitter for realizing the proposed encoder. In this device the switching rate and area are obtained about 333 GHz and 612µm2 respectively.

Here, we propose an add-drop and a channel drop filter based on two-dimensional photonic crystal all circular ring resonators. These structures are made of a square lattice of silicon rods with the refractive index n1=3.464 surrounded by air (with refractive index n2=1). The broadest photonic band gap occurs at the filling ratio of r/a = 0.17. Two linear defect W1 waveguides couple to the ring....
