摘要
设计了一种基于定向耦合结构的光子晶体偏振分束器。该分束器由两个单模波导构成,通过调节两个单模波导的宽度可以改变耦合长度。利用时域有限差分法进行仿真分析,结果表明,在波长1550nm下TE和TM两种偏振模可以分束,透射率都达到90%以上,消光比分别达到22.4dB和18.2dB。该光子晶体偏振分束器的尺寸为25.8μm×13μm。
A photonic crystal polarizing beam splitter based on directional coupling structure is proposed.The beam splitter consists of two single-mode waveguides.By adjusting the width of the two single-mode waveguides,the coupling length can be changed.The splitter is simulated and analyzed by using finite-difference time-domain method.The results show that at the wavelength of 1550 nm,both TE and TM polarizations achieve mode split.The transmissivities of TE and TM modes both exceed 90% and the extinction ratios reach 22.4dB and 18.2dB respectively.The size of the device is only 25.8μm×13μm.
