Description

Photon crystal ratio light intensity light splitter
Technical field
The present invention relates to the optical splitter of a kind of microwave and light wave, the light intensity of incident light can be divided in proportion multi-beam output.
Background technology
Photonic crystal is the artificial structure that dielectric is periodic arrangement, and its characteristic is to have photon band gap.Photon band gap is such frequency range, and the light that frequency drops in this scope can not exist in photonic crystal and propagate.And when original complete periodic structure is damaged partly, just constitute defective, and in photon band gap, introduce the defective mould, the light of corresponding frequencies will be limited in the scope of defective.If what constitute is line defect, light will be propagated along the direction of line defect, and can not turn over radius be bending of wavelength magnitude with almost having loss.Because photonic crystal has the ability of very good control light, it has numerous application prospects, such as micro-cavity laser, and photonic crystal fiber etc.The wherein the most noticeable integrated optics chip that is based on photonic crystal.Many integrated optical device that are suitable for based on photonic crystal are devised, and show good performance, such as wave filter, and photoswitch, wavelength division multiplex device or the like.Optical splitter is a very important assembly in the optical system.Two kinds of structures based on the optical splitter of photonic crystal once appearred in the past.A kind of is as shown in Figure 1 Y type optical splitter (document 1, S.Boscoloand M.Midrio, Y junctions in photonic crystal channel waveguides:high transmissionand impedance matching, Opt.Lett.v.27,1001 (2002)).This optical splitter utilizes the line defect of a Y shape, will import light and import to respectively in two branches.Because some light is reflected in bifurcation, so its efficiency ratio is lower.Another kind is the optical splitter (document 2 that utilizes guide directional coupling (directional coupling) character as shown in Figure 2, Insu Park et al.Photonic crystal power-splitter based on directional coupling, Opt.Express v.12,3599 (2004)).This optical splitter is provided with two symmetries and parallel waveguide in the input waveguide both sides, input light is the generation directional couple in the parallel zone of waveguide, consequently imports in the parallel waveguide that light is coupled to both sides and is introduced to two output ports.All about 47.6%, efficient is higher for the transmitance of two output ports (being defined as the output intensity of a port and the ratio of the incident intensity of optical splitter).Yet, the two bundle output light that these two kinds of optical splitters all can only provide light intensity to equate, thus limited its application in the occasion of the light that needs varying strength.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is to propose a kind of photon crystal ratio light intensity light splitter, make it can be as required the energy of input light be pro rata distributed each output port, and further improve the service efficiency of optical splitter.
Technical scheme is as follows:
A kind of photon crystal ratio light intensity light splitter, comprise photonic crystal, the inlead defective constitutes in photonic crystal incident waveguide and coupled waveguide, there is one section directional couple district that length parallel to each other is l between described incident waveguide and the coupled waveguide, end in the directional couple district, the incident waveguide is connected to first output port, coupled waveguide is connected to second output port, input port is meant incident waveguide input port, it is characterized in that: this device is one or more levels tree structure, in multistage structure, the output intensity of upper level is as the input light intensity of next stage, and the pass of the ratio T of the output intensity of the output port of each grade and the incident intensity of input port and the length l in directional couple district is
T 1(l)=cos 2[πl/(2L c)],

Embodiment
Fig. 3 is the structural representation that has only the photon crystal ratio light intensity light splitter of one-level provided by the invention.Incident waveguide 1 is parallel in l length with coupled waveguide 2 among the figure, and the distance of 1~4 times of grating constant at interval, and this zone is called the directional couple district.Present embodiment adopts the distance of 2 times of grating constants.Light intensity is I 0Incident light directional couple here takes place.At directional couple district right-hand member, separately light intensity will be guided to corresponding first output port 5 and second output port 6 respectively in two waveguides.For the two-beam after the beam split can not interfered with each other, the spacing of leading to the waveguide of output port should be at 8 times more than the grating constant.Adopt among Fig. 3 and be spaced apart 12 times grating constant.Output intensity I 1And I 2Just equal the light intensity of the inherent directional couple of two waveguides district right-hand member.According to the orthogonal mode theory, in the zone that directional couple takes place, the propagation constant in the originally single waveguide is that the single mode of β will split into a strange mould and an even mould, and propagation constant is respectively β OddAnd β Even, their field distribution is odd symmetry and even symmetry respectively with respect to the plane between two parallel waveguides.The stack result of strange mould and even mould is to make light intensity switch back and forth in two waveguides.It is L that light intensity switches to the length that another waveguide experiences fully from a waveguide c=π/| β OddEven|, β wherein OddAnd β EvenCan utilize plane wave expansion method to calculate.In the directional couple district, the wave function of strange mould and even mould can be expressed as respectively in the waveguide 2:
E odd,1=(A/2)·exp[j(β oddx-ωt)], (1)

E 2=E odd,2+E even,2(3)
So, through further shifting the light intensity that can obtain in the waveguide 2 distribution function onto along wave guide direction:
I(x)=I 0sin 2[πx/(2L c)],(4)
I wherein 0It is light intensity from incident port 4 incident lights.Light intensity at the x=l place in the waveguide 2 will be introduced to output first output port 5, and remaining light intensity just is directed second output port 6 along waveguide 1.The transmitance of definition output port is the ratio that each port output intensity and optical splitter are imported light intensity, so the transmitance T of the output port of waveguide 1 and waveguide 2 correspondences (being respectively 6 among Fig. 3 and 5) 1And T 2Can be expressed as the function of the length l of directional couple respectively:
T 1(l)=cos 2[πl/(2L c)], (5)
T 2(l)=sin 2[πl/(2L c)]. (6)
The allocation proportion of the light intensity of two output ports of photon crystal ratio light intensity light splitter like this, shown in Figure 3 can be set flexibly by the length of regulating directional couple.
Utilize the character of directional couple that each output intensity of optical splitter is further separated, can realize the optical splitter of multistage tree structure easily.According to the principle that the front is narrated, the light intensity of each output port is distributed can flexible design, thereby realizes the ratio light intensity light splitter (Fig. 6) more than 2 output intensities.
