Problems solved by technology

The topological beam splitter based on chiral magneto-optic crystals needs at least four magneto-optic crystals to realize four channels because the one-way waveguide transmits in opposite directions along two parallel boundaries, and the structure is also not compact enough (Tunable one-way cross- waveguide splitter based on gyromagnetic photonic crystal); in addition, the beam splitter composed of chiral honeycomb magneto-optic crystal, because its unidirectional boundary state can exist simultaneously with zigzag boundary and armchair boundary, so it will cause inevitable crosstalk
[0004] All in all, for the current existing structure to achieve multi-channel, a larger structure is required, which is not conducive to integration

Abstract

The invention discloses a compact type microwave topology beam splitter. The beam splitter comprises a first anti-chiral magneto-optical photonic crystal and a second anti-chiral magneto-optical photonic crystal which have rectangular two-dimensional cross sections and are opposite in magnetization; each of the first anti-chiral magneto-optical photonic crystal and the second anti-chiral magneto-optical photonic crystal comprises a plurality of rows of honeycomb-shaped lattices formed by periodically arranging circular dielectric cylinders, and the adjacent honeycomb-shaped lattices in the same row share the two dielectric cylinders in the middle; all the dielectric cylinders are arranged in an air background; a first anti-chiral magneto-optical photonic crystal and a second anti-chiral magneto-optical photonic crystal which are equal in size and opposite in transmission direction are spliced together, and a first point light source and a second point light source are placed at the two ends of a splicing line respectively. The invention designs a multi-channel, anti-crosstalk, compact, deployable and topologically protected beam splitter which cannot be realized by the existing beam splitter at the same time, and has great significance for optical path integration and efficient transmission of optical communication.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the fields of microwave optics, topological photonics and magneto-optical photonic crystals, and in particular relates to a compact microwave topological beam splitter. Background technique [0002] Beam splitter is the key device of ultra-dense integrated optical circuit, which has the advantage of improving transmission efficiency in optical communication. In recent years, optical beam splitters based on photonic crystal waveguides have been favored by a wide range of researchers. A photonic crystal waveguide beam splitter is a device that utilizes the property of line defects to guide light to realize optical beam splitting. However, beam splitters composed of ordinary photonic crystal waveguides have no topological protection and suffer from huge backscattering losses in essence (Gao Zhen et al. proposed in the article Guiding,bending,andsplitting of coupleddefect surface modes in asurface-wave photonic crystal Building c...
