Abstract :
In this study, we report the photonic crystal directional couplers to separate the wavelengths for 1.3 and 1.55 μm. The extinction ratios of the output ports for 1.3 and 1.55 μm are around 10 dB. This structure can be used to realize the photonic crystal nano-detection system for wavelength division multiplexing purpose.
