Abstract

The invention discloses a terahertz wave modulating device with light control flat panel silicon photonic crystal and a method thereof. The terahertz wave modulating device comprises a silicon chip, air holes, a modulated semiconductor laser, a terahertz wave source, an input end of a linear defect area, an output end of the linear defect area, and the linear defect area; the middle of the silicon chip is provided with the linear defect area; the silicon chip on two sides of the linear defect area is provided with the air holes; the silicon chip, the air holes and the linear defect area form the flat panel silicon photonic crystal; the modulated semiconductor laser is arranged above the linear defect area; and terahertz waves emitted by the terahertz wave source are input from the input end of the linear defect area, pass through the linear defect area, and are output from the output end of the linear defect area. The edge of a forbidden band of the flat panel silicon photonic crystal modulates the terahertz waves to realize load signals onto the terahertz waves. The terahertz wave modulating device has the advantages of low transmission loss, large modulation bandwidth, quick modulation speed, high extinction ratio, small size, compact structure, and convenient integration, and meets the communication requirement of the terahertz waves.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of terahertz wave applications, in particular to an optically controlled flat-panel silicon photonic crystal terahertz wave modulation device and a method thereof. Background technique [0002] Terahertz (THz, 1THz=10E+12Hz) radiation usually refers to electromagnetic radiation waves with a frequency range from 0.1THz to 10THz. This band is located at the junction of electronics and optics. It occupies a very special position in the electromagnetic spectrum. , has a series of special properties and important academic and application value. Terahertz communication has rich frequency band resources, large bandwidth, good confidentiality, and is not affected by distant electronic interference. It is difficult for a third party to receive terahertz communication signals locally. It can realize confidential communication within the range of 2 to 5Km, transmission The rate can reach 1-10Gb / s and other advantages,...
