We propose and experimentally demonstrate a small-mode volume bowtie cavity design for all-optical switching applications using a waveguide-cavity structure that exploits asymmetric Fano resonance lineshapes. The bowtie cavity has a mode volume that is five times smaller than conventional (H0-type) photonic crystal point-defect cavities enabling higher nonlinearity and faster switching. Blue and red-detuned Fano resonant devices based on bowtie cavity designs have been fabricated and characterized. Measured linear transmission spectra have been compared to coupled-mode theory models to extract key parameters such as Q-factors. Furthermore, all-optical switching at 2.5 Gbps have been demonstrated in a wavelength-conversion experiment.
我们提出并通过实验证明了一种用于全光开关应用的小模式体积蝴蝶结腔设计,该设计采用了利用非对称法诺共振线形的波导-腔结构。蝴蝶结腔的模式体积比传统(H0型)光子晶体点缺陷腔小五倍,从而实现更高的非线性和更快的开关速度。基于蝴蝶结腔设计的蓝失谐和红失谐法诺共振器件已被制造并表征。已将测量的线性传输光谱与耦合模理论模型进行比较,以提取诸如品质因数等关键参数。此外,在波长转换实验中已证明了2.5 Gbps的全光开关。
