Terahertz two-dimensional high-Q photonic crystal waveguide cavities.

چکیده
Numerical simulations were used to design a variety of high-Q resonant cavities for integration into a terahertz 2D photonic crystal waveguide. After fabrication, the transmission characteristics of each integrated cavity were explored. These photonic waveguide-coupled cavities demonstrate resonances with linewidths approaching 10 GHz. The results compare favorably to previous observations of rectangular waveguide cavities. Good agreement between the experimental results and the numerical simulations was obtained.

A New Cavity Defect for Terahertz Photonic Crystal Slabs
This paper presents a new type of photonic crystal cavity which is implemented as terahertz frequencies. The photonic crystal is a 380 μm thick silicon slab with a triangular lattice of air holes that has a pitch of 140 μm and hole diameters of 130 μm. The cavity consists of two holes filled with silicon, surrounded by the crystal. The frequency and Q of the cavity were measured using direct co...

متن کاملTerahertz photonic crystal quantum cascade lasers.
We combine photonic crystal and quantum cascade band engineering to create an in-plane laser at terahertz frequency. We demonstrate that such photonic crystal lasers strongly improve the performances of terahertz quantum cascade material in terms of threshold current, waveguide losses, emission mode selection, tunability and maximum operation temperature. The laser operates in a slow-light regi...

We present a comparison of high Q-factor tapered membrane-type onedimensional photonic crystal micro-cavities embedded in photonic wire waveguides based on silicon-on-insulator (SOI). Q-factor values as large as 24,000 have been measured, together with normalized transmission of 67%: an improvement in the Q-factor value in comparison with previous results obtained on structures with silicon cor...
