Photonic crystal to photonic crystal surface modes: narrow-bandpass filters
Optics Express
|May 29, 2009
Abstract:
The properties of surface modes present in the junction of two different one-dimensional photonic crystals placed in series are studied to assess the possibility of applying them in the design of narrow-bandpass filters. To design bandpass filters that are similar in many respects to multiple-cavity Fabry-Perot filters, we also consider the coupling conditions for these surface modes for multiple photonic crystals placed in series to form a multiple-junction system.

Passive Filters
Passive filters are utilized to shape the frequency spectrum of signals across a diverse array of applications. These filters, using only passive elements like resistors (R), inductors (L), and capacitors (C), are capable of selectively allowing or blocking certain frequency ranges without the need for external power sources.
Low-Pass Filters
Low-pass filters are designed to transmit signals with frequencies lower than the cutoff frequency, ωc, and attenuate those above it. The cutoff frequency...

Bandpass Sampling
In signal processing, bandpass sampling is an effective technique for sampling signals that have most of their energy concentrated within a narrow frequency band. This type of signal is known as a bandpass signal. The key principle of bandpass sampling involves sampling the signal at a rate that is greater than twice the signal's bandwidth to prevent aliasing.
A bandpass signal has a spectrum with a lower frequency limit, denoted as ω1, and an upper frequency limit, denoted as ω2. The spectrum...

Active Filters
Active filters are electronic circuits that use operational amplifiers (op-amps), resistors, and capacitors to filter out unwanted frequency components from a signal. A first-order low-pass active filter is designed to pass signals with a frequency lower than a certain cutoff frequency and attenuate frequencies higher than that cutoff frequency. The transfer function for a first-order low-pass active filter is:
