Abstract

The invention discloses a four-channel terahertz wave signal selection switch based on magnetic photonic crystal. An input waveguide is formed by horizontally removing part of dielectric cylinders inthe middle of a complete photonic crystal with TE mode band gap, and four output waveguides are formed by removing part of dielectric cylinders in the longitudinal direction of photonic crystals and symmetrically in the upper and lower ends of the input waveguide. An odd number of dielectric cylinders are retained between the four output waveguides and the input waveguide respectively. The centraldielectric cylinder of the retained odd number of dielectric cylinder is replaced with a magnetic point defect dielectric cylinder, and the magnetic point defect dielectric cylinder form a magnetic point defect micro-cavity with the surrounding medium cylinders. The input waveguide inputs a terahertz wave and controls the magnitude of the applied magnetic field applied to the selection switch. When the resonant frequency of a magnetic point defect micro-cavity is the same as the frequency of the incident terahertz wave, the incident wave can be coupled to the corresponding output waveguide for output. The switch has the advantages of fast speed, small volume and easy integration. And with four channels, the incident wave can be output from any one of the output channels.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of terahertz devices, in particular to a four-channel terahertz wave routing switch based on magneto-photonic crystals. Background technique [0002] Terahertz wave (THz wave) refers to a wave between microwave and infrared light, and its wavelength range is 30-3000 μm. Due to its special spectral position, good safety, high resolving power, and good transmittance, THz technology has been widely valued in the fields of object imaging, medical diagnosis, environmental monitoring, broadband mobile communication, radar, and astronomy. Compared with wireless communication, terahertz waves occupy more abundant spectrum resources, so the development of THz communication is particularly important. In recent years, there has been an upsurge in the study of terahertz communication systems and devices, among which THz wave switches are an indispensable part of THz technology applications and have become a research hotspot. ...
