Abstract

The concept and method of analysis of photonic crystals and band gaps are introduced into fullerene-film network structure, which is treated theoretically as a photonic crystals. We investigate different aspects of the absolute photonic band gap (PBG) formation for 2D photonic crystals (PC) consisting of air rods drilled into fullerene films. Specifically, square lattices and triangular structure are considered. The formation of PBG is exhibited and confirmed by a calculation of the transfer matrix method (TMM). We find that fullerene based networks could be good candidates for absolute inhibition of transmission in the visible frequency range for given orientations.
