Abstract
The transfer matrix method (TMM) was used to investigate the tunability of the transmittance with an external magnetic field and temperature within the photonic bandgap in the terahertz range. Mg2Si and CoSb3 defect layers (D) were used for this in the symmetric (Si/SiO2)N D (SiO2/Si)N and asymmetric (Si/SiO2)N D (Si/SiO2)N one-dimensional photonic crystals. Using the Faraday model, different results were obtained for the responses of symmetric and asymmetric structures to magnetic fields for the right- and left-handed polarized dielectric constants. Our findings demonstrate that the defect mode is only seen in the CoSb3-contained structure when a magnetic field between 0 and 1 T is used. For both symmetric and asymmetric Mg2Si-contained structures, the peak was not apparent in the presence of magnetic field. The Drude model was used to analyze the temperature dependency of the defect mode for the structures mentioned above. For asymmetric and symmetric constructions, various frequencies and heights were found. The frequency of the CoSb3 defect peak varies considerably as temperature rises from 100 to 300 K, whereas the Mg2Si defect frequency remains unchanged. The asymmetric Mg2Si structure at different temperatures did not exhibit any defect modes. The defect mode heights of all structures fall as the temperature rises.
