Abstract
In the present work, we will perform the tailoring of resonant hybrid photonic crystals (RHPC) and clusters, based on the elementary cell of a resonant hybrid minimum model, in order to study its optical chiral properties, due to the space inversion symmetry breakdown and optical rotation effect, that are able to preserve unidirectional exciton-polariton propagation and photonic band gap formation. The optical chiral properties of these non-magnetic hybrid system will be discussed and the main optical parameter values, in order to observe unidirectional exciton-polariton propagation, will be evaluated in the self-consistent mesoscopic framework for the YVO4/GaAs hybrid system.
