2D Bragg Resonators Based on Planar Dielectric Waveguides (from Theory to Model-Based Testing)

Resumo

Using analytical approaches and CST Microwave Studio 3D simulation, the electrodynamic characteristics of 2D Bragg resonators based on planar dielectric waveguides with doubly periodic corrugation are theoretically analyzed. Such resonators are of great interest to obtain directed narrow-band radiation in heterolasers with large active regions. Model electrodynamic experiments on the “cold” testing of such structures in the millimeter range are performed. Good agreement between the experimental and simulation results is shown, including the existence of the highest-Q mode within the Bragg reflection band in the absence of defects in the periodicity.
