利用数值方法,我们研究了一维光子带隙材料的带边附近的线性折射率的空间梯度的脉冲传输,以及非线性介质响应。我们发现,这样的结构可以导致单向脉冲传播。也就是说,场将在从左到右的传播方向上传输,而在从右到左的传播方向上几乎发生完全反射。这种行为构成了无源光二极管的工作机制。
Using numerical methods, we study pulse propagation near the band edge of a one-dimensional photonic band gap material with a spatial gradiation in the linear refractive index, together with a nonlinear medium response. We find that such a structure can result in unidirectional pulse propagation. That is, the field will be transmitted for, say, a left-to-right direction of propagation, while for right-to-left nearly complete reflection occurs. This behavior constitutes the operational mechanism for a passive optical diode.
