Wavelength division demultiplexing by photonic crystal waveguides with asymmetric corrugated surfaces

【摘要】 <正>We propose a new type of wavelength division demultiplexer composed of a photonic crystal waveguide with asymmetric corrugated exit surface.The focus displacement for different symmetric corrugated surfaces is relative to the intensity of the excited surface mode.By systematically investigating the effects of the parameters of the corrugated surface on the focus shift,we demonstrate an on-axis focus by a photonic crystal waveguide with an asymmetric corrugated exit surface at a specific wavelength.The precise equivalences of surface modes at each side of the exit surface are broken.Thus,for the light source with other wavelengths,the emerging beams are off-axis focused at different directions,similar to the function of a wavelength division demultiplexer.更多还原
