Abstract

A design method based on one-dimensional photonic crystal theory (1-D PC theory) is presented to design Bragg concave diffraction grating (Bragg-CDG) for the demultiplexer. With this design method, the reflection condition calculated by the 1-D PC theory can be matched perfectly with the diffraction condition. As a result, the shift of central wavelength of diffraction spectra can be improved, while keeping high diffraction efficiency. Performances of Bragg-CDG for TE and TM-mode are investigated, and the simulation results are consistent with the 1-D PC theory. This design method is expected to be applied to improve the accuracy and efficiency of Bragg-CDG after further research.
