Abstract
We propose a compact dual-band bandpass filter (BPF) based on one-dimensional porous silicon (PS) photonic crystal by electrochemical etching. By inserting three periods of high and low reflective index layers in the center of porous silicon microcavity (PSM), two sharp resonant peaks appear in the high reflectivity stop band on both sides of the resonance wavelength. Through simulation and experiment, the physical mechanisms of the two resonance peaks and the resonance wavelength are also studied. It is found that the resonance wavelength can be tuned only by adjusting the effective optical thickness (EOT) of each PS layer, in which different resonance wavelengths have different widths between the two sharp resonance peaks. Besides, the analysis indicates that oxidization makes the blue shift become larger for high wavelength than that for low wavelength. Such a fabricated BPF based on PS dual-microcavity is easy to be fabricated and low cost, which benefits the application of integrated optical devices.
