Resonant photonic states of quasi one-dimensional photonic quantum well in a rectangular waveguide

Abstract

Abstract We have demonstrated a calculation of the resonant photonic states of quasi one dimensional photonic quantum well for the transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM) modes in a rectangular waveguide. The photonic crystal heterostuctures are composed of two different photonic crystals as (AB)m(CD)n(AB)m . In order to solve the resonant photonic states, it is necessary to calculate the transmission functions of TE modes and TM modes. In this work, we consider the propagation of microwaves in photonic crystal heterostructures in our simulation model. The positions and number of the resonant photonic states can be adjusted by the widths of photonic quantum wells. The degenerate resonant photonic states are not existed for both the TE and TM modes, respectively. These results are useful applications in photonic quantum devices and nano technologies.
