The wave attenuation characteristics are quantitatively evaluated through optical density (OD) measurements. The simulations were performed using the transfer matrix method implemented in MATLAB for both TE and TM polarizations. The results demonstrate a strong correlation between refractive index contrast (Δn) and photonic bandgap characteristics, where higher Δn values yield broader bandgaps and enhanced attenuation. The numerical analysis reveals that both incidence angle and layer thickness significantly influence the photonic bandgap characteristics, where increasing the angle causes a blue-shift in the bandgap position according to Bragg's law, while varying the layer thickness enables precise tuning of the bandgap width. Significantly, the Si/Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> structure achieves the widest bandgap (1200–1950 nm) and highest optical density (OD = 11.5), while the Nb<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>/CYTOP configuration shows good performance (OD = 10) with potential for flexible photonic devices. Polarization-dependent analysis show that TE waves maintain consistent attenuation at oblique incidence, in contrast to TM waves which show pronounced attenuation loss near Brewster's angle. These findings provide fundamental insights into material selection and structural design for optimizing photonic crystal performance.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":620,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Computational Electronics","volume":"24 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144914828","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ring resonators (RR) offer wavelength-selective filtering through resonance, enabling them to perform logic operations by controlling the coupling and interference of optical signals. The proposed structure consists of an MR coupled to dual straight bus waveguides in an add-drop configuration. Binary logic is implemented by analyzing the output optical intensity under varying input conditions, using specific threshold values to distinguish logic states. For both the logic gates, output intensity equal to or greater than 50% is considered logic ‘1’. Simulation results confirm that the MR structure accurately performs logic functions based on the constructive or destructive interference of the input signals within the resonator. Logical outputs are derived by comparing the transmitted optical power at the drop port against the defined thresholds. The device exhibits a compact footprint, and a fast response time, making it suitable for integration into photonic circuits. The implementation does not require any external tuning mechanisms, such as thermal or electro-optic control; the system still relies on sufficient optical input power to achieve nonlinear behavior. This work emphasizes the feasibility of using RR-based designs for compact, reconfigurable, and high-speed optical computing elements.
