Acousto-optic cavity coupling in 2D phoxonic crystal with combined convex and concave holes

Résumé

A two-dimensional cross-like phoxonic crystal (PxC) model is proposed, which exhibits simultaneously large complete photonic crystal (PtC) and phononic crystal (PnC) bandgaps. The most salient trait of the structure is the wide range of geometrical parameters compatible with large complete bandgaps. After geometrical optimization, photonic and phononic bandgaps with gap-to-midgap ratios of 11.5% and 90.7% are obtained, respectively. These values are close to the best topology-optimized reported values but are obtained with simple shapes compatible with nanoscale fabrication technology. These characteristics make the convex–concave topology a promising candidate for PxC devices. A cavity is then introduced by filling up one cross-like hole in the 7 x 7 super-cell. PtC and PnC bands with defects appear in the respective large complete bandgaps, confining phonons and photons in the same cavity. Acousto-optic (AO) coupling between photonic and phononic defect modes is further investigated by the finite element method, taking both photoelastic and moving interface mechanisms into consideration. The symmetries of both photonic and phononic modes play a dominant role in the coupling strength. Results show that the strongest linear coupling between a photonic transverse magnetic mode and phononic breathing mode is obtained due to the in-phase superposition in the x and y directions. A quadratic nonlinear coupling is observed when photonic modes are coupled with the phononic stretching mode due to the inverse superposition of x and y directions. Finally, the optomechanical coupling rates relative to zero-point motion are estimated.
