摘要
In this study, we present a photonic crystal Add-Drop Filter (ADF) design based on 3×3 ring resonators. The normalized transmission spectra for single-ring and dual-ring configurations have been investigated by using the two-dimensional Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) technique in a square lattice dielectric-rod photonic-crystal structure. In this study, firstly we investigate a single ring bend structure and we show that this structure can act as a broadband bend in third communication window. Then we suggest a new structure with two rings to develop a new ADF. This filter consists of an input and two outputs. Our FDTD simulation yields more than 90% efficiency over each output. We investigate parameters which affecting resonant frequency in photonic crystal add-drop filters. These parameters include dielectric constant of rods and the ring size as well as the radius of the coupling and scatterer rods. © 2008 Asian Network for Scientific Information.
