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...

In this paper using nested Rectangular resonator we have designed an add-drop filter based on photonic crystal structures suitable for optical communication applications. The drop efficiency and the quality factor of our proposed filter is 100% and 2508. In this filter the quality factor is significantly improved with respect to other published reports. The simulation results are obtained using...

in this article, we suggested a novel design of polarization splitter based on coupler waveguide on inp substrate at 1.55mm wavelength. photonic crystal structure is consisted of two dimensional (2d) air holes embedded in inp/ingaasp material with an effective refractive index of 3.2634 which is arranged in a hexagonal lattice. the photonic band gap (pbg) of this structure is determined using t...

This paper investigates the core and cladding effective area and splicing loss behavior of a square lattice photonic crystal fiber. These behaviors of square lattice photonic crystal fiber are also compared with the hexagonal photonic crystal fiber. Effective index method is applied for the numerical calculation and the plot has been analyzed by using MATLAB. It has been observed that by choosi...

Abstract: In this research, we attempt to envisage the mirror application using semiconductor photonic crystal with the help of photonic bandgap analysis. The photonic bandgap of photonic crystal structure is simulated using plane wave expansion method, where photonic crystal is realized by 2D triangular photonic crystal structure with gallium arsenide as background material having periodic air...

we design a novel nano-ring resonator using two-dimensional photonic crystal (2d-phc), for bio-sensing applications. the structure of biosensor is created by two-curve-shaped ring resonator which sandwiched by two waveguides. these are configured by removing one row of air holes. the refractive index of sensing hole is changed by binding an analyte. hence, intensity of the transmission spectrum...

We demonstrate the monolithic integration of photonic crystal waveguides, a photonic crystal demultiplexer, a conventional waveguide and photodiodes in InGaAsP-based material. The photonic crystal demultiplexer consists of hexagonally arranged air holes. The inputted light at the wavelengths of 1530nm and 1550nm can be separated by the demultiplexing system.
