Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since it was first published in 1995, Photonic Crystals has remained the definitive text for both undergraduates and researchers on photonic band-gap materials and their use in controlling the propagation of light. This newly expanded and revised edition covers the latest developments in the field, providing the most up-to-date, concise, and comprehensive book available on these novel materials and their applications. Starting from Maxwell's equations and Fourier analysis, the authors develop the theoretical tools of photonics using principles of linear algebra and symmetry, emphasizing analogies with traditional solid-state physics and quantum theory. They then investigate the unique phenomena that take place within photonic crystals at defect sites and surfaces, from one to three dimensions. This new edition includes entirely new chapters describing important hybrid structures that use band gaps or periodicity only in some directions: periodic waveguides, photonic-crystal slabs, and photonic-crystal fibers. The authors demonstrate how the capabilities of photonic crystals to localize light can be put to work in devices such as filters and splitters. A new appendix provides an overview of computational methods for electromagnetism. Existing chapters have been considerably updated and expanded to include many new three-dimensional photonic crystals, an extensive tutorial on device design using temporal coupled-mode theory, discussions of diffraction and refraction at crystal interfaces, and more. Richly illustrated and accessibly written, Photonic Crystals is an indispensable resource for students and researchers. Extensively revised and expanded Features improved graphics throughout Includes new chapters on photonic-crystal fibers and combined index-and band-gap-guiding Provides an introduction to coupled-mode theory as a powerful tool for device design Covers many new topics, including omnidirectional reflection, anomalous refraction and diffraction, computational photonics, and much more.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis examines the fundamental characteristics of defect cavities in three-dimensional (3-D) layer-by-layer photonic crystals (PCs). Photonic crystals are engineered materials in which a 3-D periodic variation in the dielectric constant is used to prevent propagation of electromagnetic waves within a range of frequencies, thus creating a photonic band gap. By introducing a cavity defect within the periodic structure of the crystal, narrow transmission bands are formed within the photonic gap. This can be viewed as photonic resonant tunneling, in which photons tunnel through PC cladding layers surrounding the cavity. The transmission modes correspond to the resonant frequencies of the cavity. Using a microwave-scale photonic crystal structure, we studied the effects of changing cladding layer thicknesses on resonant frequencies and the quality factors (Q) of measured transmission peaks. We found that, for a given cavity size, the quality factor increased with increasing cladding thickness, indicative of better photonic confinement within the cavity. Also, the peak transmission level decreased with increasing cladding thickness. Both of these results are consistent with resonant tunneling behavior. We also studied the effect of changing the cavity size, while keeping cladding thicknesses constant. We found that the resonant frequencies changed very little as the cavity sizes changed. Again, this is consistent with the theoretical picture of cavities within PCs. We also studied coupling between waveguides and cavities, in which electromagnetic radiation would travel down a waveguide within a PC, couple to a nearby cavity, which would in turn couple to a second waveguide. By studying variations in the placement of the coupling cavity with respect to the two waveguides, we were able to find conditions that would lead to almost 100% transfer from one waveguide to the other, within a narrow band of frequencies. These results suggest that waveguide-cavity coupling may be a useful component for building complex photonic waveguide networks within a photonic crystal.
Download or read book Photonic Crystals written by Alessandro Massaro and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2012-03-30 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second volume of the book concerns the characterization approach of photonic crystals, photonic crystal lasers, photonic crystal waveguides and plasmonics including the introduction of innovative systems and materials. Photonic crystal materials promises to enable all-optical computer circuits and could also be used to make ultra low-power light sources. Researchers have studied lasers from microscopic cavities in photonic crystals that act as reflectors to intensify the collisions between photons and atoms that lead to lazing, but these lasers have been optically-pumped, meaning they are driven by other lasers. Moreover, the physical principles behind the phenomenon of slow light in photonic crystal waveguides, as well as their practical limitations, are discussed. This includes the nature of slow light propagation, its bandwidth limitation, coupling of modes and particular kind terminating photonic crystals with metal surfaces allowing to propagate in surface plasmon-polariton waves. The goal of the second volume is to provide an overview about the listed issues.

Download or read book Photonic Band Gap Materials written by C.M. Soukoulis and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 725 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Photonic band gap crystals offer unique ways to tailor light and the propagation of electromagnetic waves. In analogy to electrons in a crystal, EM waves propagating in a structure with a periodically-modulated dielectric constant are organized into photonic bands separated by gaps in which propagating states are forbidden. Proposed applications of such photonic band gap crystals, operating at frequencies from microwave to optical, include zero- threshold lasers, low-loss resonators and cavities, and efficient microwave antennas. Spontaneous emission is suppressed for photons in the photonic band gap, offering novel approaches to manipulating the EM field and creating high-efficiency light-emitting structures. Photonic Band Gap Materials identifies three most promising areas of research. The first is materials fabrication, involving the creation of high quality, low loss, periodic dielectric structures. The smallest photonic crystals yet fabricated have been made by machining Si wafers along (110), and some have lattice constants as small as 500 microns. The second area is in applications. Possible applications presented are microwave mirrors, directional antennas, resonators (especially in the 2 GHz region), filters, waveguides, Y splitters, and resonant microcavities. The third area covers fundamentally new physical phenomena in condensed matter physics and quantum optics. An excellent review of recent development, covering theoretical, experimental and applied aspects. Interesting and stimulating reading for active researchers, as well as a useful reference for non-specialists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this course was to give an overview of the physics of artificial semiconductor structures confining electrons and photons. It furnishes the background for several applications in particular in the domain of optical devices, lasers, light emitting diodes or photonic crystals. The effects related to the microactivity polaritons, which are mixed electromagnetic radiation-exciton states inside a semiconconductor microactivity are covered. The study of the characteristics of such states shows strong relations with the domain of cavity quantum electrodynamics and thus with the investigation of some fundamental theoretical concepts.
