Tuning a two-dimensional photonic crystal resonance via optical carrier injection
Optics letters, 2005•opg.optica.org
We report on wide wavelength tuning through optical injection of carriers of a photonic
resonance observed in reflectivity at 1543 nm in an InP-based two-dimensional photonic
crystal slab. An 8-nm blueshift, which represents 20 times the resonance linewidth, is
observed when a 4? kW/cm^ 2 intense optical pump is incident on the sample. An analytical
model that we developed, based on a coupled-mode nonlinear approach, allows us to
describe this phenomenon in detail.
