Modelling PBG devices to DWDM filters design

The fibre optic transmission systems require a bandwidth of about 25 THz in telecommunications networks, for which it is necessary to resort to dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) systems. These systems need optical filters to broadcast selectively or not in a given wavelength band. A new...

Summary:The fibre optic transmission systems require a bandwidth of about 25 THz in telecommunications networks, for which it is necessary to resort to dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) systems. These systems need optical filters to broadcast selectively or not in a given wavelength band. A new very promising technology for these applications is the photonic crystals with forbidden bandgap (photonic bandgap (PBG)). In this paper, we propose a model of PBG devices to design DWDM filters on PBG materials. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
