Inhibited and enhanced spontaneous emission of light is essential to quantum optics in design and development of high efficiency optical devices which are useful to security optical communication system. Thus, we performed to develop an efficient single photon source by controlling inhibited or enhanced spontaneous emission of the photon using silicon-based honeycomb lattice patterned finite thickness photonic crystal waveguide. A quantum dot embedded in planar photonic crystal membrane waveguide is the light source. The honeycomb lattice of circular air holes on silicon plate is simulated to obtain large completely photonic band gaps. This significant property shows the potential applied guide modes of photonic crystal membrane for controlling inhibited or enhanced spontaneous emission between the quantum dots and the photonic crystal waveguide. Significantly, this work is oriented to produce the novel single photon sources which can emit one photon at a time for the quantum optical security network with single photon state. In addition to the honeycomb lattice can easily be made on a Si on insulator (SOI) wafer.

We review the simulation work for the far-field focus and dispersionless anticrossing bands in two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystals. In a two-dimensional photonic-crystal-based concave lens, the far-field focus of a plane wave is given by the distance between the focusing point and the lens. Strong and good-quality far-field focusing of a transmitted wave, explicitly following the well-known wave-beam negative refraction law, can be achieved. The spatial frequency information of the Bloch mode in multiple Brillouin zones (BZs) is investigated in order to indicate the wave propagation in two different regions. When considering the photonic transmission in a 2D photonic crystal composed of a negative phase-velocity medium (NPVM), it is shown that the dispersionless anticrossing bands are generated by the couplings among the localized surface polaritons of the NPVM rods. The photonic band structures of the NPVM photonic crystals are characterized by a topographical continuous dispersion relationship accompanied by many anticrossing bands.

In this paper we present our investigation of 2D Archimedean lattice photonic crystals with p4g space group symmetry. The structures are made of GaAs both as air holes and dielectric rods in air. In order to analyze the photonic crystal optical properties we performed calculations of the band structures, equi-frequency contours and electromagnetic propagation through the basic structures and waveguides. In addition, we investigated negative refraction and left-handedness in the p4g photonic crystal.
