Important Effect of Defect Parameters on the Characteristics of Thue-Morse Photonic Crystal Filters

الملخص EN

Design and characterization of optical filters based on photonic crystal Thue-Morse structures are theoretically examined using transfer matrix method.

It is shown that by introducing defect layer in the original structure of the proposed filter, main characteristics of it are changed.

The main advantage of this defect in Thue-Morse structure is its capability for DWDM communication applications.

In other words, achievement of DWDM filter through the Thue-Morse photonic crystal structure is much easier.

The desired wavelengths can be achieved by changing the defect parameter.

High efficiency of the proposed filter is one of its benefits.

The transmission efficiency of this structure is about 96% and the quality factor is more than 77000.
