Abstract

Abstract In this work, photonic crystal (PhC) based all-optical 1 × 2 demultiplexer is designed for optical computing and optical signal processing. The structure is implemented with two-dimensional PhCs using T-shaped waveguides with an optimized silicon rod radius of 0.2a. Performance of the proposed structure is verified and analyzed by using the finite-difference time-domain method. The design of all-optical demultiplexer is operated based on optical interference effect at a wavelength of 1550 nm. Proposed design occupies less area of 8.4 × 5.4 µm, provides a contrast ratio of 18.53 dB, 94.52% of minimum and 100% of maximum transmission ratio and it has less insertion loss of 0.017 dB; therefore, the proposed device is suitable for photonic integrated devices.
