Abstract

We present the theoretical analysis and design of a novel slotted photonic crystal geometry to demonstrate an on-chip Fano resonance. The device employs three parallel-coupled slotted photonic crystal cavities on an SOI wafer. We present a systematic analysis of the evolution of the Fano line-shape, while the geometric parameters of the structure and the inter-cavity distances vary. To achieve the dynamic tunability of the Fano resonance, we have considered an active electro-optic chromophore as the cover material of our slot-based geometry. This paves a novel way towards the demonstration of a fully-integrated, electrically-controllable Fano resonant geometry on a silicon-polymer platform.
