The light localization characteristics of the near-infrared triangular-lattice photonic crystal annular microcavity are studied theoretically in this paper. The photonic crystal has a lattice constant of a=540 and it is composed of silicon rods each with a radius of r=135 immersed in air background. The two kinds of annular microcavities are obtained by removing 12 silicon rods which are located respectively at a distance of 2a and at a distance of √3a to the central rod. Five resonant wavelengths and the corresponding eigen mode profiles of the microcavity are studied. A coupled resonant optical waveguide is formed by integrating the microcavities with a periodic length of 7a in space. The group velocity of light beam propagation within multiple guiding bands are analyzed by the tight-binding approximation method. The maximum and minimum velocity of 0.0028c and 0.00082c are obtained, where c is the light velocity in vacuum. The light transmittance values and spatial steady distributions of the electric field's amplitude through the structure at several wavelengths within the guiding bands are studied by the finite-difference time-domain method. The results are consistent with that calculated by the plane wave expand method. Interleaving circular microcavities perpendicular to the direction of optical transmission at a lateral distance of 2√3a, the coupling region between the adjacent microcavities is changed, the difference in group velocity between guiding bands apparently decreases and the transmittance values of two frequency bands are enhanced.
Keeping the size of silicon rods unchanged, two kinds of microcavities are constructed by removing the six rods with the distances of 2a and √3a from the center of the central silicon rod, respectively. The resonant wavelengths supported by the above two microcavities are studied. Two coupled-resonant optical waveguides with a periodic length of 7a are proposed. Connecting these two coupled cavity optical waveguides with the W1-typed input/output waveguides, the selecting and sharing function of guiding band are finally achieved for wavelengths within different frequency bands. Keeping the group velocity slowing down, a maximum value of one guiding band reaches 0.00047c.[1] Yablonovitch E 1987 Phys. Rev. Lett. 58 2059
