Ultra-slow light with high normalized delay–bandwidth product and refractive-index sensing in photonic crystal coupled-cavity waveguide
Optics Communications(2022)
摘要
Ultra-slow light can enhance light–matter interactions and effectively realize all-optical buffering and modulation. In this paper, we present an efficient design for a two-dimensional square-lattice photonic crystal coupled-cavity waveguide, which can realize multi-frequency band slow-light transmission in the near-infrared band (1500–1640 nm).Through adjusting intercavity spacing N and structural parameters of elliptical air holes, high group index ng (202.46) within the bandwidth of 5.04 nm and improved normalized delay–bandwidth product of 0.6583 can be obtained at the wavelength of 1550.05 nm. Moreover, the designed devices can effectively function as a slow light sensor with the wavelength sensitivity of 585 nm/RIU. Multiple functions can be achieved synchronously in only one structure, which is essential in complex optical integrated circuits.
