Abstract

Optical loss and polarization characteristics of the photonic crystal stick waveguide resonator modes were investigated using both theory and experiment. A stick waveguide resonator with 12 missing air holes was found to have a very high Q(>3 800 000) mode originating from the lossless guided mode below the light line. Photoluminescence spectra show sharp resonance peaks at regular intervals in k space, satisfying the resonant condition. Linear polarizations parallel or perpendicular to the waveguide were observed, depending on the mode symmetry. This polarization selection is explained in terms of the far-field cancellation effect of the in-plane field components.
