Abstract

In this paper, we present a study of one-dimensional defective photonic crystal, configured based on metamaterial and high-temperature superconductor. The proposed configurations are exploited in order to generate one or more defect transmission peaks in the photonic band gap. In the design procedure, the transfer matrix method is used to determine the transmission coefficient of the structure for transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM) modes. Important parameters are targeted in the study of the performance of the proposed design which are the quality factor, the band gap width, and the ability to generate defect peaks in the band gap. Results obtained show the effects of parameters, such as thickness of the metamaterial, operating temperature and thickness of the superconductor, and thickness and type of the defect layer, on the improvements in the band gap width, on the number of band gaps, and on the tenability of the defect peak frequency. Also, the number of defect layers strongly influences the occurrence of more than one defect peak in the photonic band gap. The analysis is carried out using MATLAB software tool. The accuracy of the analysis is tested by comparing the computed results with published data.
