In this paper, we present methods for beam splitting in a planar photonic crystal, where the light is self-guided as dictated by the selfcollimation phenomenon. We present an analysis of a one-to-two and one-to-three beam splitter in a self-guiding photonic crystal lattice and validate our design and simulations with experimental results. Moreover, we present the first one-to-three splitter in a self-guiding planar photonic crystal. Additionally, we discuss the ability to tune the properties of these devices and present initial experimental results.
在本文中，我们介绍了平面光子晶体中光束分裂的方法，其中光由自准直现象决定进行自引导。我们对自引导光子晶体晶格中的一分二和一分三光束分离器进行了分析，并用实验结果验证了我们的设计和模拟。此外，我们展示了自引导平面光子晶体中的首个一分三分离器。此外，我们讨论了调节这些器件特性的能力，并展示了初步实验结果。
