Abstract

We investigate the transmission properties and its photoinduced change in a one-dimensional photonic crystal slab. This periodic waveguide consist of quartz grating substrate and a thin polymer film containing a photosensitive protein bacteriorhodopsin. We propose a scheme to achieve light-controlled optical switching using the photoinduced refractive index change of bacteriorhodopsin.
