Abstract

We demonstrated 32-channel drop filters with 100 GHz spacing consisting of arrayed nanocavities and a waveguide in a photonic crystal silicon slab. Changing the lattice constant of the nanocavities on the subnanometer scale successfully controlled the drop wavelengths at 100 GHz spacing in the wavelength range between 1510 and 1550 nm. The device size was as small as 15 μm × 270 μm, and the variation in drop wavelengths was less than 0.3 nm in terms of standard deviation. We also present a movie showing the operation of the drop filter, demonstrating that the arrayed nanocavities have the potential for developing ultracompact 100 GHz spaced filters in a dense wavelength division multiplexing system.

Near-infrared camera shots of the 32-channel drop filter with r = 110 nm when the wavelength of the transmitted laser was scanned from 1525 to 1545 nm at a speed of 2 nm per second (Media 1). A movie showing the operation of the drop filter consisting of 0.15a shifted L3 cavities is presented in Media 2. Movies were obtained with exposure time of 10 millisecond, 25 frames per second, and camera resolution of 320 × 256 pixels.
