Abstract
This work presents a single-objective optimization framework for designing complex photonic crystal (PhC) filters. As a case study, a super defect PhC filter with five rods is considered. Due to the large number of structural parameters and complexity of designing process, the problem is formulated and optimized by using a recent optimization algorithm called multi-verse optimizer (MVO). Six optimal super defect filters are obtained by MVO with respect to the WDM standard, which is defined by ITU-T Recommendation G.694.2. The designed super defect filters are then placed side by side to implement WDM. The results of FDTD simulation of the designed WDM show that the magnitude of output spectral transmission is higher than that of the current works in the literature. In addition, the high-quality factor and low crosstalk value (−32.9 dB) are the other advantages of the designed WDM with optimal super defect filters.
