In the paper we present an implementation of resonance coupling between a unidirectional air waveguide and two cavities with one-way rotating state in a two-dimensional dielectric photonic crystal and a magneto-optical photonic crystal. We theoretically calculate the dispersion curves of the line defect waveguide and the dispersion curves of waveguide-cavity interaction, respectively. Numerical simulations show that, via waveguide-cavity coupling, a series of interesting resonance phenomena can be generated in the system. By modifying direction of the applied external magnetic field, storing and discharging of photonic energy can be realized. Our work may provide a practical and useful guidance for optical communications.

AbstractA channel add-filtering function of a device based on defects in a two dimensional photonic crystal slab is investigated in addition to a channel drop-filtering function reported previously. It is considered that photons irradiated to a point defect from free space are trapped by the point defect, are transferred to a line defect waveguide nearby, and are emitted from the waveguide edge. It is shown that the spectrum of the add-filtering function is almost same as that of the drop-filtering function, which demonstrates that photons can be not only dropped-from but also added-to a line-defect waveguide through the resonant trapping by point defects.
