The Directional Coupler on The Basis of The Runway Type Photonic Crystal Waveguide
Considering the significant value of the directional coupler on the integrated optical circuit and optical electronic integrated circuits
two dimensional photonic crystal directional coupler depended on the photonic crystal waveguide was designed.
Via
the coupling between the bus waveguide and the coupling waveguide
the high efficiency beam splitter of the electromagnetic wave with the wavelength of 1 490 nm and 1 550 nm was realized. The transmission efficiency reached about 93.5%
and the length of the device can be controlled under 30 m. In addition
it was found that the coupling period was sensitive to the structure parameters of the rods located between the bus waveguide and the coupling waveguide. By stretching the length of the rods to about 0.1
a
(
a
is the lattice period) along
z
direction
the directional coupler with the working wavelength of 1 490 nm and 1 550 nm was designed. The length of the device was about 60 m
which was much shorter than that without optimizing. The coupling period can be dramatically shorten by stretching the longitudinal length of the rods
which is of crucial value on the decreasing the volume of the device and the achievement of the denser wavelength division multiplexing.
