摘要
This study proposes a novel graded photonic crystal structure that can be used to achieve asymmetric light propagation. This structure is obtained by changing the radius of a conventional square lattice photonic crystal. A higher contrast ratio is obtained by extending the numbers of the periods of the graded photonic crystal in the horizontal direction. The best contrast ratio almost reaches 1. The intensity at the spot where the light propagated forward converges is two orders of magnitude greater than the intensity at the optical axis of the backward transmission. Numerical results are obtained using the finite-difference time domain and plane wave methods. The proposed structure has significant application potential in optical integration.
