Abstract

Two dimensional photonic crystal usage in a novel dispersive device was analyzed. It was observed that the photonic crystal possessed a spectrum called photonic bandgap where transmittance at the wavelength is zero. By inserting or rotating the photonic crystal in the optical path, desired pulsewidth is obtained without any optical alignment. It was found that the dispersion compensation of the transmitted pulse could be achieved by changing the incident angle of the laser beam.
