Abstract
We propose a full-wave numerical model of a three-dimensional (3-D) photonic crystal with the absolute photonic bandgap (PBG) centered at ? ~ 1.6 ?m. The analyzed structure is widely used in integrated optical circuitry. The electromagnetic analysis is performed by using the finite-element method (FEM) and transmission line matrix-integral equation (TLMIE) method. We analyze the reflection properties and compare theoretical results to experimental data. Due to its exact boundary conditions, TLMIE shows much higher accuracy with respect to FEM in the PBG optical band. As a demonstration, we have realized and analyzed a holographic polymer dispersed liquid crystal grating. © 2005 IEEE.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
