![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Improved bends for two-dimensional photonic crystal waveguides Improved bends for two-dimensional photonic crystal waveguides](/preview/png/1537445.png)
For two-dimensional photonic crystals involving infinitely long dielectric rods or air-holes on square or triangular lattices, a number of high performance 60° and 90° waveguide bends are obtained by solving optimization problems involving the radii of a few rods or air-holes as the degrees of freedom. In particular, the proposed 60° bends significantly outperform previous designs that insert three or five identical air-holes in the bend. The optimization problems are solved using a recently developed method based on the so-called Dirichlet-to-Neumann (DtN) maps of the unit cells.
Research Highlights
► 2D photonic crystal waveguide bends are optimized by varying radii of rods or air-holes.
► A new 60 degee bend significantly outperforms previous designs.
► Optimization of the bends uses a recently developed efficient numerical method.
