Abstract
In this work, we use the finite-difference time-domain method in conjunction with a genetic algorithm to design photonic crystal power beam splitters based upon a typical planar photonic crystal waveguide with corrugated surfaces or gratinglike surfaces covered behind the termination. Considering a power detector placed at different locations in the output field, we have obtained several beam splitters designs with different splitting angles. These beam splitters have high splitting efficiency and power intensity in the propagation direction.
