摘要
The influence of etching slope on cavity Q-factors in two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystal (PhC) slab is studied. Through FDTD simulation, it is confirmed that the Q-factor decreases with etching slope. The main loss comes from the horizontal coupling into propagating TM-modes. We designed three-lattice-long modified linear cavities having high Q-factors. However, the measured Q-factor was about 250. This small Q-factor is attributed to the non-vertical (13 degrees) side wall.
