This paper focuses on manipulating thermal emission and radiation loss of heat energy in a heat waveguide. A One-Dimensional Photonic Crystal is used as a waveguide clad to prohibit the thermal emission from escaping. The model may reduce the radiation loss of heat energy in the waveguide core, and heat energy can be confined to propagate along the waveguide’s longitude axis. The waveguide clad comprises alternative layers of high and low refractive index materials containing sufficient electromagnetic stop bands to trap the thermal emission from escaping out of the waveguide. The numerical simulation of the model shows that the forbidden bandgap of photonic crystal structures with alternative layers of silica and silicon has width enough to make heat energy be confined within the waveguide core so that efficient heat energy transmission can be achieved along the longitude axis of the waveguide.

We investigate theoretically the coupling of exciton with light in a one-dimensional photonic crystal. The unit cell of the crystal consists of two alternating layers, namely a metallic layer and a semiconductor one. The frequency-dependent dielectric function of the metal is described by the Drude model, whereas for the semiconductor we use a nonlocal excitonic dielectric function. The polariton dispersion for s-polarized modes in the metal-semiconductor photonic crystal is compared with that for a dielectric-semiconductor photonic crystal. Because of the metal layers, a low-frequency gap appears in the photonic band structure. The presence of the semiconductor gives rise to photonic bands associated with the coupling of light with size-quantized excitón states. At frequencies above the longitudinal exciton frequency, the photonic band structure exhibits anticrossing phenomena produced by the upper exciton–polariton mode and size-quantized excitons. It is found that the anticrossing phenomena in the metal-semiconductor photonic crystal occur at higher frequencies in comparison with the dielectric-semiconductor case.

Abstract In this work, we numerically study the luminescence of nanodiamonds with NV centres embedded in a polymer layer on the surface of one-dimensional photonic crystal. The interaction of NV center spontaneous emission with the Bloch surface wave (BSW) is demonstrated. The presence of a photonic crystal leads to a change in the angular distribution of the emitter radiation due to the coupling of luminescence to BSW. We show that the best coupling efficiency of 71% is observed when NV centres are located in the close proximity to the BSW field maximum.

Transmission Properties

The transmission properties of one-dimensional photonic crystal composed of the Gyromagnetic and gain medium are investigated. The energy loss due to the Gyromagnetic medium is compensated by adding one gain defect layer. From the analysis, it is found that both the nonreciprocal and enhancement effect are affected considerably by the incident angle, layer thickness, external magnetic field and gain coefficient. Specifically, it is demonstrated that the gain defect layer plays an important role in achieving nonreciprocal and enhancement transmission.
