Abstract
The concentration dependence of the specific rotation angle of a gyrotropic photonic crystal (imperfect 1D superlattice with an arbitrary number of sublattices one of which (potassium dithionate K2S2O6) is optically active) is numerically simulated. Specific gyrotropic features of the photonic crystal related to the random substitution of layers of a model molecular crystal with vacancies for the layers of the K2S2O6 sublattice are revealed using microscopic analysis of the specific rotation angle of the optical polarization in the molecular crystal with a primitive lattice in the exciton spectral range.
