1 Layered media and photonic crystals Cord Arnold / Anne L Huillier

2 Definition A photonic crystal is a periodic arrangement of a dielectric material that exhibits strong interaction with light Variation of refractive index on the scale of the wavelength λ Photonic Crystals; J.D. Joannopoulos

3 Artificial photonic crsytals 1D: Bragg Reflector 2D: Si pillar crystal J. Serbin LZH 3D: Wood pile diameter of the rods 200 nm, spacing in-between 250 nm 3D: Colloidal crystal

4 Natural Examples Natural opals

5 Multilayer Optics

6 How to analyze a multilayer system Wave-Transfer Matrix Scattering Matrix Conversion Analysis of multilayer optical system S i M i M Σ S Σ

7 Cascaded system - Airy formulas

8 Examples: Homogeneous medium

9 Examples: Partially reflective mirror (beamsplitter)

10 Examples: Single dielectric boundary

11 Off-axis waves in layered media Reflections become angle-dependent Reflections become polarisation dependent The phase is obtained from a projection on the optical axis The angle is different in different refractive index media

12 Single boundary Off Axis Waves in Layered Media

13 Fabry-Perot Etalon (Mirror) Free spectral range

14 Dielectric Slab as a Fabry-Perot Etalon

15 Off-Axis Transmittance of FPE

16 Bragg grating

17 Dielectric Bragg grating Condition ( nd + nd ) mπ ϕ1+ ϕ2 = k = The accumulated phase shift must add to π, λ/2

18 Off-axis high-reflection mirrors

19 Examples for 1-dimensional multilayer structures Dielectric multi-layer mirror: - Alternating stack of high and low refractive index materials (n 1 >n 2 ) with optical thickness of lambda/4 in each layer. - Reflectivity >99.999% for narrow bands, >99% for very broad bands n 1 n 2 Typical coating materials: - Magnesium fluoride n~1.3 - Silicone dioxide n~ Tantalum pentoxide n~2 - Zinc sulfide n~2.3 - Titanium dioxide n~2.4 Image source: Wikipedia

20 Examples for 1-dimensional multilayer structures Chirped dielectric mirror: - The layer thickness changes as function of depth into the mirror. Blue wave lengths are reflected at the surface, red in the depth. - Chirped mirrors are used to cancel dispersion in ultrashort pulse oscillators. - They form the basis of today s femtosecond laser technology. - Reflectivity >99% for nm.

21 Examples for 1-dimensional multilayer structures Fiber Bragg grating (FBG): - Wavelength filtering and multiplexing - Single frequency fiber lasers - Stretching, compression, dispersion compensation with chirped FBGs - Sensing, e.g. temperature and pressure Image source: Wikipedia

22 A short introduction into photonic crystals

23 Dispersion relation K(ω) and wave localization for a 1d photonic crystal made from alternating dielectric layers

24 Dispersion relation K(ω) for a 1d photonic crystal made from alternating dielectric layers

25 Phase and group velocity Slow region Phase velocity Group velocity c n c 0 vp = eff 0 vg = Neff

26 Photonic band gaps at off-axis propagation Internal off-axis waves External off-axis propagation coupled into the structure

27 Rectangular lattice Two-dimensional photonic crystals Triangular lattice

28 Photonic Crystal in Two Dimensions Band Gap for TM modes

29 2D PhC, Complete (!) 2D Band Gap Triangular lattice of holes!, a, r ~λ

30 3D Photonic Crystals: Yablonovite Historically 1 st 3D Band Gap Crystal

31 3D PhC Woodpile structure

32 Defect modes

33 Defect modes By introducing a defect in the highly periodic environment as for example removing one rod or simply changing the radius of one or a few roods, the periodicity is broken and defect modes can exist in the forbidden gap! This e.g. allows for laser cavities with dimensions of the order of one wave length!

34 Bending light in 2D PhC

35 PhC Add-Drop Splitter λ1 >λ2 >λ3 λ1 >λ3 λ2 NB: Add-drop filter with wavelength selectivity of ca 1% having dimensions of ca. one wavelength
