Spectral Peak Shift in One-Dimensional Nonlinear Photonic Crystal

Abstract

We present a numerical study of the pulse propagation inside a one-dimensional nonlinear photonic crystal (PC) in which the nonlinear layer is a Kerr medium. The Transfer matrix method is used to study the nonlinear propagation in the structure. We observe shift in the peak spectral wavelength induced by self-phase modulation as a result of high Kerr nonlinearity.
