In recent years, many groups have envisioned the possibility of integrating optical and electronic devices in a single chip. In this paper, we study the integration of a photonic crystal laser fabricated in InP with a silicon passive waveguide. The coupling of energy between a 2D photonic crystal (PhC) triangular lattice band-edge laser and waveguide positioned underneath is analyzed in this pa...

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.

In This paper, optical Filter based on photonic crystal ring resonator with square lattice is proposed. The add-drop filter is designed by coupling in line quasi waveguide and resonant cavity. Photonic band gap is obtained by plane wave expansion method (PWE) and Simulation is carried out by Finite Difference Time Domain method (FDTD).This type of add-drop filter provide high transmission effic...

We study propagation of light beams in two-dimensional photonic lattices created by periodically curved waveguide arrays. We demonstrate that by designing the waveguide bending, one can control not only the strength and sign of the beam diffraction, but also to engineer the effective geometry and even dimensionality of the two-dimensional photonic lattice. We reveal that diffraction of differen...

The purpose of this article is to show that efficient light coupling in lithium niobate waveguides presenting a strongly confined mode, such as photonic wires, is possible with the use of a periodically segmented waveguide coupler. The coupler consists in an input periodically segmented waveguide whose mode size is adapted to the mode of a standard single-mode fiber coupled to a photonic wire w...

Recently, band-pass photonic crystal filters have attracted great attention due to their important applications in the fields of optical interconnection network and ultrahigh speed information processing. In this paper we propose the design of a new type of photonic crystal band-pass resonant filters realized in onemissing-row waveguide by decreasing proper defects along the waveguide with broa...

We present predicted relative scattering losses from sidewall roughness in a strip waveguide compared to an identical waveguide surrounded by a photonic crystal with a complete or incomplete gap in both 2d and 3d. To do so, we develop a new semi-analytical extension of the classic “volume-current method” (Green’s functions with a Born approximation), correcting a longstanding limitation of such...

Coupling external light signals into a photonic crystal (PhC) waveguide becomes increasingly inefficient as the group velocity of the waveguiding mode slows down. We have systematically studied the efficiency of coupling in the slow light regime for samples with different truncations of the photonic lattice at the coupling interface between a strip waveguide and a PhC waveguide. An inverse powe...

We experimentally demonstrate a terahertz-bandwidth photonic differentiator employing a silicon-on-insulator directional coupler. The integrated waveguide coupler with two identical paralleled strip waveguides achieves a first-order differentiator when full energy coupling is met from one waveguide to another. The integrated waveguide coupler can offer different operation bandwidths by changing...
