摘要
Photonic crystals containing defects produce enhanced Faraday rotation but existing designs have low intensity output. We show that designs with two-defects possess sufficient freedom to attain high transmission over a large range of rotation angles in very short lengths. We optimize such systems for 45 degrees rotation in optical isolators.
