Local tuning of photonic crystal nanocavity modes by laser-assisted oxidation

Laurent Balet

The authors demonstrate a sample method to achieve local tuning of optical modes in GaAs photonic crystal nanocavities by continuous wave laser-assisted oxidation in air atmosphere. By irradiation with a focused laser beam at power levels of a few tells of ...

Post-fabrication control of evanescent tunnelling in photonic crystal molecules

Laurent Balet

The post-fabrication control of evanescent tunnelling in photonic crystal molecules is demonstrated through the combination of selective infiltration and oxidation. By laser non thermal oxidation, we reduce the photonic coupling by more than 30% while by m ...

Spectral tuning and near-field imaging of photonic crystal microcavities

Romuald Houdré, Laurent Balet, Carl Zinoni

We experimentally observe a sizable and reversible spectral tuning of the resonances of a two-dimensional photonic crystal microcavity induced by the introduction of a subwavelength size glass tip. The comparison between experimental near-field data, colle ...

Mode hybridization in photonic crystal molecules

Laurent Balet

A complete control of the coupling between the modes of two photonic crystal microcavities is obtained by using a combination of several local tuning techniques. By a local and controlled modification of one cavity we are able to bring into resonance modes ...

Local tuning of the optical response of two-dimensional photonic crystals

Romuald Houdré, Rolando Ferrini, Libero Zuppiroli, Laurent Balet, Pascale El-Kallassi

Local tuning of the optical response of GaAs-based two dimensional photonic crystals (PhCs) is reported. A selective polymer infiltration technique was developed. Scanning electron microscopy and optical measurements were used to characterize the filled Ph ...

Nanofluidic control of coupled photonic crystal resonators

Laurent Balet

A fine control of a photonic molecule is obtained by nanofluidic techniques. The coupling condition between the modes of two photonic crystal nanocavities is modified by spectrally tuning each single resonator. Clear mode anticrossing and transition from l ...

Nonlinear optical tuning of photonic crystal microcavities by near-field probe

Laurent Balet

We report on a nonlinear way to control and tune the dielectric environment of photonic crystal microcavities exploiting the local heating induced by near-field laser excitation at different excitation powers. The temperature gradient due to the optical ab ...

Ideal homoatomic and heteroatomic photonic crystal molecules

Laurent Balet

A local tuning of the modes of photonic crystal systems both to blue and to red sides of the resonance is implemented by nano-infiltration/evaporation of water and laser micro-oxidation. This technology is used to completely control coupled photonic nanoca ...
