Example Embodiment

[0073] Example 1

[0074] In this embodiment, without considering the dispersion or the material dispersion change is small, by changing the lattice constant in proportion, the function of the optical path gating switch of different wavelengths can be realized by the magnetron. Let the parameter a=6.1772×10 -3 [m], d 2 = 0.3a, d 3 = 0.2817a, d 5 =1.2997a, μ=9.6125, p=0.7792, normalized light wave frequency ωa / 2πc=0.4121, other parameters remain unchanged, making it correspond to 20GHz light wave. Referring to Figure 5(a), the switch contrast map in the forbidden band lightwave frequency range is obtained through simulation calculation, and referring to Figure 5(b), the switch isolation map in the forbidden band lightwave frequency range, the structure has high contrast and high The magnetron with isolation degree can choose one optical path strobe switch, thus realizing the optical switch function.

[0076] In this embodiment, regardless of the dispersion or the small change of the material dispersion, the function of the optical path gating switch of different wavelengths can be realized by changing the lattice constant in an equal proportion. Let the parameter a=4.1181×10 -3 [m], d 2 = 0.3a, d 3 = 0.2817a, d 5 =1.2997a, μ=9.6125, p=0.7792, normalized light wave frequency ωa / 2πc=0.4121, other parameters remain unchanged, making it correspond to 30GHz light wave. Referring to Figure 6(a), the switching contrast in the forbidden band lightwave frequency range is obtained by simulation calculation; referring to Figure 6(b), the switching isolation in the forbidden band lightwave frequency range, the structure has high contrast and high isolation The magnetron selects one optical path strobe switch to realize the optical switch function.

[0077] Example 3

[0078] In this embodiment, regardless of the dispersion or the small change of the material dispersion, the function of the optical path gating switch of different wavelengths can be realized by changing the lattice constant in an equal proportion. Let the parameter a=3.0886×10 -3 [m], d 2 = 0.3a, d 3 = 0.2817a, d 5 =1.2997a, μ=9.6125, p=0.7792, normalized light wave frequency ωa / 2πc=0.4121, other parameters remain unchanged, making it correspond to 40GHz light wave. Referring to Fig. 7(a), the switch contrast in the band gap frequency range is obtained by simulation calculation; refer to Fig. 7(b), the switch isolation diagram in the band gap frequency range. It can be seen from Figure 7(a) and Figure 7(b) that when the normalized light wave frequency ωa / 2πc = 0.4121, the finite element software COMSOL calculates the light field simulation diagram, such as Picture 8 Shown. It can be seen that TE light is efficiently propagated to port 2 and port 3, respectiv...

Abstract

The invention discloses a photonic crystal T-shaped waveguide-based horizontal output magnetic control alternative light path switch which comprises a photonic crystal T-shaped waveguide with a TE forbidden band. The light path switch further comprises an input end (1), two output ends (2, 3), a background silicon dielectric cylinder (4), isosceles right triangle defect dielectric cylinders (5), a defect dielectric cylinder (6) and an electromagnet (7) for supplying offset magnetic field, wherein the input end (1) is arranged at the left end of the photonic crystal T-shaped waveguide; the output ends (2, 3) are respectively located at the right end and upper end of the photonic crystal T-shaped waveguide and are arranged in a horizontal line; the defect dielectric cylinder (6) is located at a central interaction of the T-shaped waveguide; the photonic crystal T-shaped waveguide is used for inputting the TE carrier light through the port (1) and then outputting the amplitude modulating light from the port (2) or the port (3). The photonic crystal T-shaped waveguide-based horizontal output magnetic control alternative light path switch is small in structure volume, is convenient in integration and is capable of efficiently realizing the function of alternative light path switch.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a magnetically controlled two-to-one optical path gating switch, in particular to a lateral output magnetically controlled two-to-one optical path gating switch based on a photonic crystal T-shaped waveguide. Background technique [0002] Traditional magnetically controlled two-to-one optical path gating switches apply the principle of geometric optics, so they are relatively large in size and cannot be used in optical path integration. The combination of magneto-optical materials and new photonic crystals has led to the proposal of many photonic devices. The most important property of them is the gyromagnetic non-reciprocity of electromagnetic waves under the bias magnetic field, so that the magnetic photonic crystals not only have optical properties, but also have larger transmission bandwidth and higher transmission efficiency. For tiny devices based on photonic crystals, such as magnetron selective one-of-two optical path ...
