摘要
A line-defect waveguide in a triangular lattice photonic crystal (PC) made of air holes in dielectric is demonstrated to support transverse magnetic (TM) as well as transverse electric (TE) guided modes simultaneously. A group of suitable geometric parameters were found to make the guided bands overlapped by means of Genetic Algorithm. The optimized waveguide realizes a polarization-independent single-mode transmission and wide operating bandwidth which reaches 0.012 Delta omega a/(2 pi c). Moreover, the guided modes are shown to exhibit a wide-bandwidth slow light and an extremely low group velocity dispersion in most frequency range. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
