Abstract

We propose a kind of planar photonic crystal micro-cavity which is truly two-dimensional and is composed of a line of periodic air-holes and a set of periodic air grooves both with defect. Unlike the photonic crystal micro-cavity formed by distributed Bragg reflection (DBR) layers and two dimensional holes in a semiconductor substrate, the micro-cavity proposed is a true two-dimensional planar structure that is easy for mass-production through die-press copying. Numerical simulations by the FDTD method show that there exist resonance modes inside the photonic bandgap. The resonance wavelength is mainly decided by the period and radius of the holes. The quality factor of the cavity is mainly decided by the number of periods of the holes and the grooves.
