Abstract - Photonic crystals are periodic optical nano structures that bear upon the motion of photons. Photonics play an important role driving innovation in an increasing number of fields. The application of photonics spreads across several sectors: from optical data communications to imaging, lighting and displays; from the manufacturing sector to life sciences, health care, security and safety[17]. We design a structure of 4 channel demux using photonic crystal, it has one horizontal input and four vertical output. Then we plot the graph between the transmission flux and at each output port of the demultiplexer. Then we compared the transmission spectrum of both the design and found that the transmission flux of D2 is greater than D1 which is the main characteristic required for communication

I. INTRODUCTION to the De-mux at a fixed time interval, and a counter is connected to the demultiplexer at the control i/p to Photonics uses photons in the same manner as sense the data signal at the demultiplexer’s o/p electronics uses in their applications. There side[15] . When all data signals are stored, the output are many advantages of devices that runs on light as of the demultiplexer can be read out in parallel rather compared to the devices that operates on electricity than serial[15]. because as we know that the is much In the current communication field characteristics like faster than the speed of electricity[11]. Thus data High Performance Demux with High Quality Factor, travels at much higher speed in devices that uses light Low Pass Band, Low Channel Spacing are required. and also covers long distances in lesser time than the To achieve all the mentioned characteristics devices that operates on electricity. Visible light and simultaneously, we got the motivation to design 4 infrared beam do not interfere with each other thus no channel demux using simple resonant cavity. interference is there unlike in electric current. The Also Low Crosstalk and High Power Transmission photonics applications are very quick and very stable. Efficiency are required for communication. Initially Also it is high confining optical technology and has T-shaped photonic crystals were used and developed well characterized processing. Photonic crystals are by Rostami et al[10]. But it had low power periodic optical nanostructures that bear upon the transmission coupling efficiency which is prime motion of photons[1,2,3]. PC’s exists in nature in the factor for the communication. Due to this different kind. Such a structure can be periodic in a disadvantage it was not used. single dimension, two dimensions or three Then Y-shaped photonic crystals were used and dimensions. developed by Li et al[5].Though it was good than the The periodic nature of the structure causes the previous structure i.e. T-shaped because it gave 100% dispersion relation (relationship of frequency to transmission efficiency but due to the very low or wavelength) to be periodic and to have a band zero quality factor it was also not successful and not structure[14]. used. So we designed a 4 channel demux using Demultiplexers have one input and multiple outputs simple resonant cavity. thus used to connect a single source to multiple destinations[15]. In Communication System Both II. MATERIALS AND METHODS Mux and Demux are used in communication systems to carry out the process of data transmission. A De- Photonic Crystal: Periodic arrangement of refractive mux receives the output signals from the multiplexer index with the period of the order of a and converts them back to the original form[15] at wavelength[11]. Enables one to control light with the receiver end. Also demux is used in ALU, the amazing facility and produce effects that are output of the ALU is goes to the input of the De- impossible with conventional optics.The light beam mux, and the o/p of the demuxis connected propagates through the photonic crystal without to multiple registers[15]. The output of the Arithmetic scattering for most of the wavelengths, but for some Logic Unit can be stored in multiple registers[15]. wavelengths, no light propagates through the photonic crystal: this property of the photonic crystal To convert Serial data to Parallel data – is called a photonic band gap property . The photonic The serial to parallel converter is used to reform crystal is multidimensional[11] : 1-D, 2-D and 3- parallel data. In this , serial data are given as an input D[11].

Against Port 2 (1 10 0) the 'k' plot the resonant frequency i.e. wave vector , Port 3 (10 10 0) the band structure for the photonic crystal is obtained Port 4 (19 10 0) and called as 'optical insulator'. This property enables one to control light with amazing facility and produce We run the program for 500 to find out the effects that are impossible with conventional optics. transmission flux and reflection flux. Then we plot Periodicity of the refractive index distribution creates the graph between frequency and transmission flux of a special region inside the band structure of the PC, in both the designs with the help of MATLAB. By this which the propagation of some optical waves is we compared the transmission flux and reflection flux forbidden called photonic band gap (PBG). PBG of both the designs. depends on the refractive index and structural parameters of the PC[16] .

For sensing application, this property can be examine minutely[11]. By creating defect in the PC[12] helps to control the light inside the photonic crystal. Defects are: Line defect and point defect. Line defect is used to create waveguide in the photonic crystal while the light can be trapped in PC with the useof point defect. The plane wave equation is given as below[11]:
