Abstract
The structure of two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystals (PCs) with square lattice is proposed in this paper, and researches on characteristics of photonic band gap (PBG) are conducted using finite difference time domain (FDTD) method, then the effects of the dielectric constant and the radius of dielectric rods on band gap are analysed, dielectric rods in air (rods/air). The research results indicate that in the case of TE and TM polarization mode, the difference value of dielectric constant of medium and dielectric rods affects forming PBG.The band gap broadens with the difference value increasing. Whats more, the complete band gap (CBG) appears in range of large rods radius structure when dielectric constants of rods are smaller than that of medium.
