Improvement of characterization accuracy of the nonlinear photonic crystals using finite elements-iterative method

We investigate nonlinear one- and two-dimensional photonic crystals by applying a finite element-iterative method.Numerical results show the essential influence of nonlinear elements embedded into a quarter-wave stack and the sharp photonic crystal waveguide bend on the spectral characteristics of these structures. We compare our results with those obtained in [21] from the discrete equation method for the case of a sharp waveguide bend. The comparison shows that neglecting the nonuniform field distribution inside the embedded nonlinear elements leads to overestimation of the waveguide bend transmissivity.

Design of the photonic crystal demultiplexers for ultra-short optical pulses using the gap-maps analysis

In the work, the new method for the design of the wavelength division multiplexer on the basis of 2D photonic crystal integrated circuit for the ultra-short pulses channel separation is proposed and investigated. The method is based on the analysis of full photonic bandgap maps that allows defining the ultra-short pulse demultiplexer parameters selection. For the method approbation, there was synthesized the device in which the wideband filters are used for the channel separation. As it was expected, the device effectively separates 50 fs pulse channels with 1.31 and 1.55 microns wavelengths. The obtained spectral characteristics and pulse pattern responses validate the efficiency of the proposed method and the applicability of such devices to the integrated photonic information processing circuits.
