Abstract
Here we would like to discuss the light transmission modulation by the one-dimensional polymeric quasi-multilayer which is formed according to substitutional generalized Octonacci with PMMA and PS as the constituent materials. In particular, we will present some theoretical findings using the well-known transfer matrix method. The width of the PBG, the inter-band spacing and the depth of the PBGs can be managed by choosing the appropriate generation number, whereas the number of the major PBGs is the same for all the considered generation numbers. Regarding the position of the PBGs, we found that, with an increase in generation number, the aroused PBGs are shifted symmetrically towards the designed frequency. It also reveals the aroused forbidden frequency band can be manipulated by changing the applied hydrostatic pressure. With an increase in pressure, the frequency spectra are shifted to a higher frequency. In addition to this, we also found that as the thickness of the polymers increases the PBGs are red-shifted. The proposed structure could be another possible system for optical device design specially multi-band tunable optical reflectors.
