摘要：Here we numerically and experimentally demonstrate the conversion of normally incident light into the guiding modes of distributed Bragg reflector (DBRs) mirror. By fabricating a gold grating onto a 7.5 pairs TiO2/SiO2 DBR mirror, a series of asymmetrical resonances have been formed at the bandgap range of the DBR mirror. The detailed numerical calculations show that these Fano resonances are attributed to the coupling of incident waves into guiding modes of the DBR mirror. Compared with the other resonances, this coupling mechanism can be simply realized and it has also been revealed to be quite robust to the environmental changes, making the conversion between propagating waves and guiding waves to be practically interesting for many applications.
