Abstract |
|
In the past two decades, there has been a growing interest on artificially fabricated material called Photonic Crystal as a material for controlling the electromagnetic waves due to its remarkable properties. The Photonic Band Gap of the Two-Dimensional Photonic Crystal containing nematic liquid crystal is investigated using Plane Wave Expansion (PWE) Method. Then, the Band Structure and the Reflectance Spectrum analysis are also done. The results show that the Two-Dimensional Photonic Crystal can be tuned according to desired properties by means of introducing the liquid crystal. Thus with the proper use of design parameters of PBG, many advanced devices can be modeled with desired properties. Here a simple waveguide is designed which makes the signal propagation horizontally. |
