Abstract In this study, a Si3N4 on insulator device used for photonic integrated chips (PICs) is proposed. The dual-working mode device is constructed using a racetrack microring resonator, which is established using a dual-period photonic crystal-stepped concave waveguide (DPCSCW). A novel scheme of dual-working modes is realized, and sensing and filtering are performed simultaneously without interference. The results show that a sensitivity of 558.6 nm/RIU and quality factor of 5795.24 were obtained for the sensor mode. An extinction of 58 dB and bandwidth of up to 335 nm were achieved in the filter mode. The footprint of the entire device is within 20 μm×11 μm, which is ultra-compact and suitable for PICs.

AbstractWe optimize a silica-encapsulated silicon L3 photonic crystal cavity for ultra-high quality factor by means of a global optimization strategy, where the closest holes surrounding the cavity are varied to minimize out-of-plane losses. We find an optimal value of $$Q_c=4.33\times 10^7$$ Q c = 4.33 × 10 7 , which is predicted to be in the 2 million regime in presence of structural imperfections compatible with state-of-the-art silicon fabrication tolerances.

AbstractIn this article, a 2D photonic crystal (PC)-based optical filter has been designed using a PC ring resonator. The resonator used is of square type with a square lattice constant, which has been designed by increasing the radius of the inner rods of the resonator. The filter designed can separate the light of the wavelength of 1545.3 nm with a transmission coefficient of 98 %. The bandwidth of the above wavelength is equal to 0.5 nm and hence the quality factor of the device at this wavelength is equal to 3091. The effects of the structural parameters, such as the refractive index, the lattice constant, the radius of the dielectric rods, the radius of the inner rods of the resonator on the behavior of the proposed device, are fully investigated. To obtain the photonic band gap, the plane wave expansion method is used. In addition, the finite difference time domain method is used to examine, simulate, and to obtain the output spectrum of the structure. The designed structure has both high transmission coefficient and quality factor. Comparatively speaking, it is also simple to design which justifies its use in other photonic crystal-based optical devices.
