The Optical Properties of A Liquid Crystal-metal Photonic Crystal Waveguide
The optical properties of a 2D liquid crystal-metal photonic crystal waveguide is analyzed with the FDTD method. A 2D square lattice metal photonic crystal waveguide lies between two electrodes filled with liquid crystal. By introducing different voltages to the electrodes
the orientation of the liquid crystal can be induced thus to change the refractive index of the liquid crystal
which varies the band structure of the photonic crystal. Numerical results show that the optical properties of the metal photonic crystal waveguide can be modulated by the voltage adjustment. This photonic crystal waveguide can be used in making optical switches and other optical devices.
