Problems solved by technology

In 2015, a Bragg grating shaped like a sandwich structure was used to realize the unidirectional transmission of light and obtained a high transmission contrast, and the light was almost completely suppressed in the reverse propagation, but the preparation process was extremely complicated and required the assistance of a special light source
Considering the anisotropic relative permittivity of magneto-optical (MO) materials, some optically nonreciprocal devices have been fabricated based on the magneto-optic effect, but these devices have not found an efficient way to modulate the propagation of light. direction

Abstract

The invention relates to a plenoptic diode, in particular to a plenoptic diode with adjustable light transmission direction based on Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction. The plenoptic diode includes magneto-optical materials and metal nanowires, and the metal nanowires are embedded in the magneto-optic material , a laser beam is focused on the middle of the metal nanowire, and the two ends of the metal nanowire are connected to the positive and negative poles of a direct current power supply (DC). The all-optical diode is based on Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction and surface plasmon resonance technology, which can effectively modulate the propagation direction of the light source and limit the radius of the device to the nanometer scale, providing theoretical guidance for the realization of all-optical diodes with controllable light transmission direction; In the application field of surface plasmon resonance, it has important reference value to improve the working stability of photodiodes.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to a plenoptic diode, in particular to a plenoptic diode with adjustable light transmission direction based on Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction. Background technique: [0002] The most basic device on an integrated photonic circuit is an all-photodiode. Compared with electrons, photons have the characteristics of no rest mass and fast propagation speed. Relatively speaking, the speed of information transmission of all-optical diodes will far exceed that of diodes that are widely used today. Therefore, if a photodiode that can be dynamically modulated can be manufactured, it will be of great significance for the preparation of complex photonic circuits in the future. Traditional photodiodes are mainly based on photonic crystal structures, including photonic crystal heterojunctions, photonic crystal waveguides, and photonic crystal fibers. In recent years, many new structures have also achieved the purpose of suppressin...
