Realization of Twenty Monochromatic Beams using Photonic Structure via Principle of Filtering

Abstract

The current work employs silicon-based one dimensional photonic structure which delivers ‘20’ different types of monochromatic beams (wavelengths) via filtering action. The I/P signals are essentially varies from visible to short infrared range to justify the work. Though similar type of works related to filtering application are found in the literature, the present research deals with an output signal which could be deployed in different purposes vis-à-vis dentistry, dermatology, spectroscopy, printing, holography, barcode scanning etc. The physicality of this work incorporates 68 layers of silicon monoxide and silicon based one-dimensional optical waveguide along with their configuration where the plane wave expansion method does fulfill the nitty-gritty of required mathematics to solve out electromagnetic wave equations. Reflectance and transmittance characteristics along with the absorbance are the critical parameters that substantiate the said application.
