ABSTRACT

In this paper, we have investigated a multichannel filter by using one dimensional ternary photonic crystal (1DTPC). We have used Thue-Morse sequence (TMS) for defect layer. To model the multichannel filter, we have checked the effect of different number of unit cells (N)

and TMS in defect layer (m). First, we have plotted transmission in terms of wavelength with different N in TPC. Then, we have shown transmission in terms of wavelength for different m

1. Introduction
Optical filters are devices that selectively transmit light of various wavelengths, while blocking the remainder which is called PBG [1-3]. A metallo-dielectric TPC is a periodic structure containing dielectric and metallic materials with different refractive indices. There are a lot of researches in using dielectric and metals in 1DTPC [4-19]. In this paper, we use transfer matrix method (TMM) method to calculate transmission in TPC [20-23]. The dielectric layers in TMS have put in binary series. The TMS structures are wellknown for their high transmission efficiency which is useful for modeling multichannel filter. In this structure by changing the number of TMS defect layers we can increase the number of
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT channels very much. We present a structure with TMS defect layers, (ABC)N / Sm+1/(CBA)N as multichannel filter , where A and C are dielectric, B is metallic layer and N is the number of unit cells. Also, the structure of TMS defect layer is Sm+1 where m is the number of TMS. This structure with a defect layer leads to several PBGs and more channels in both visible and infrared regions [24]. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the multichannel filter based on 1DTPC with TMS
PT
as defect layer. We specially investigate transmission as a function of wavelength in TE wave. As we shall show later, there are three PBG with three channels in visible and two PBG with three channels in infrared regions in TE polarization. The presence of TMS
RI
structure in defect layer leads to enhance PBG and defect modes in this multichannel filter.
SC
Also, the number of PBG and defect modes increases more by increasing N and m. The analysis of this structure gives some useful information for the design of multichannel

4. Conclusions
In this paper, we have shown that 1DTPC with TMS structure can use as multichannel filter.

We have modeled this with the structure (ABC)N / Sm+1/(CBA)N where Sm+1 is TMS. Also, A, C and B are dielectric and metallic layers, respectively. First, we have plotted transmission in
MA
terms of wavelength for the different number of unit cells (N) and shown that there are three PBG and three channels in visible range. Also, there are two PBGs and three channels in infrared regions. Furthermore, the transmission value decreased by increasing N. Then, we

have shown transmission in terms of wavelength for different number of TMS defect layers
PT E
(m) in both visible and infrared regions, and we have seen that there are three PBGs in visible region and the number of channels increase a lot by increasing m. Also, there are two PBGs in infrared range, and the number of defect modes increase by increasing m. So, we have
CE
more transmission peaks by increasing m. Our analysis shows that 1DTPC with TMS defect layer structure can use as multichannel filter with high transmission and can be tuned by
AC
increasing N and m. This structure can be used in optical communications. Acknowledgment
