Background technique

Photonic crystal (Photonic crystal, PC) is a kind of artificial crystal, or makees metamaterial (Metamaterials), the refractive index of this crystal spatially has periodic distribution, and characteristic is similar to solid crystals. Periodical potential and boundary condition are introduced into Xue Dingge equation, closed by the dispersion of the solution available solid crystals of Characteristic Problem It is (Dispersion relation), or makees band structure (Band Structure).As a same reason, by periodic refractive Rate distribution and boundary condition introduce Maxwell (Maxwell) equation, solve the energy band of the available photonic crystal of Characteristic Problem Structure.The dissemination of electromagnetic wave in the photonic crystal is similar to the electronics in solid crystals, and the electromagnetic wave of specific frequency can not In the presence of in the photonic crystal, that is, the energy gap (Band gap) being similar in solid crystals, the referred to as band of forbidding manufacture of photonic crystal (Forbidden band).Photonic crystal can control the dissemination of light, and application range is very extensive, such as photonic crystal The related applications such as laser, photonic crystal fiber.

It holds, photonic crystal laser is broadly divided into two kinds, deficiency laser (Defect lasers) and band edge type thunder Penetrate (Band-edge lasers).The operating frequency of deficiency laser is in the band of forbidding manufacture of photonic crystal, in photon crystal structure It is middle to remove one or several lattice-sites as defect, it is confined to electromagnetic wave in defect and then forms laser resonant cavity, this thunder The advantages of penetrating is to have high quality factor (Quality factor), lower threshold condition etc..And band edge type laser It is leveled off to using the group velocity of band edge energy state and zero realizes slower rays (Slow light) effect, make photon in the photonic crystal Life cycle (Life time) it is elongated, the reciprocation being enhanced between photon and gain media.Since this laser will Operating frequency designs in the flat energy state of band edge, rather than the energy state in band of forbidding manufacture, therefore resonance zone is no longer confined to It in minimum volume, is able to be extended to entire photonic crystal region, realizes the resonance of the large area people having the same aspiration and interest.On the other hand, due to photon The special diffraction phenomenon of crystal, light not only couple in photonic crystal plane, also can be around injection photonic crystal plane, it is possible to Achieve the effect that light (Surface emission) is projected in face.The advantages of this laser, has face to project light, large area goes out light, smaller The angle of divergence, high-power output and be easy to make the excellent characteristics such as two-dimentional laser array.
