Abstract

An ultra compact photonic crystal (PC) ring-shaped channel drop filter (RSCDF) is proposed to generate single side band (SSB) signal for 60GHz ROF system. This PC-RSCDF contains a bus waveguide, a resonant cavity, a ring-shaped waveguide (RSW) and a coupled cavity output waveguide. The notch depth and notch bandwidth of CDF can get 98% and 0.4nm respectively by inducing RSW and shifting the center defect rod of cavity and the rod around the cavity. Then, a method of fine tuning the resonant frequency of PC-RSCDF is proposed by adjusting the radius of insensitive rods which have weak coupling interaction with the light and the sensitivity of structure can be decreased, and the resonant frequency can be shifted to the sideband frequency of double side band (DSB) signal accurately. Finally, a 60GHz ROF SSB modulation system is demonstrated by using designed PC-RSCDF that can filter lower or upper sideband by changing its structure parameters. The extinction ratio (ER) of lower and upper sideband can get 20.9dB and 18.6dB respectively.
