Abstract
In this paper, by means of the network equation and generalized eigenfunction method we investigate the optical transmission spectra and attenuation behavior of electromagnetic (EM) waves in multiconnected Peano networks composed of one-dimensional (1D) waveguides. It is found that for some two-segment-connected networks a very large photonic band gap (PBG) can be created in the middle of a frequency period and the width of the large PBG can be controlled by adjusting the matching ratio of waveguide length, d 2 : d 1. When d 2 : d 1 = 2 : 1, the width of the large PBG is bigger than half of frequency period. The influence of generation on the width and attenuation of the large PBG are also studied and the numerical results demonstrate that the first-generation Peano network with d 2 : d 1 = 2 : 1 is a good selectable structure for the designing of optical devices with large PBG and strong attenuation.
