Abstract

Transmission coefficient and dispersion relation are calculated for a one-dimensional photonic crystal of alternating dielectric-metamaterial slabs with a dielectric-superconductor pair defect. The presence of the superconductor slab in the pair defect layer leads to a strong depletion of the TM transmission coefficient in a frequency range close to the edges of the non-Bragg gap and around the characteristic resonance frequency of the superconductor and introduces TM electromagnetic modes inside such gap. The features of the arising modes depend on the relation between the thicknesses of the layers involved in the defect and a low-frequency mode can arise from the low-frequency continuum of the bulk metamaterial modes at a non-zero in-plane wave vector.
