Abstract
First two omnidirectional photonic band gaps (OBGs) realized by one-dimensional (1D) Fibonacci quasi-periodic structure which is composed of superconductor and two kinds of isotropic dielectric are theoretically studied by the transfer matrix method (TMM). From the numerical results, it has been shown that such OBGs are insensitive to the incident angle and the polarization of electromagnetic wave (EM wave), and the frequency ranges and central frequencies of OBGs cease to change with increasing Fibonacci order, but vary with the ambient temperature of system and the thickness of the superconductor, respectively. The bandwidths of OBGs can be notably enlarged. The damping coefficient of superconductor layers has no effect on the frequency ranges of OBGs. Those OBGs originate from a Bragg gap in contrast to zero-n˜ gap or single negative (negative permittivity or negative permeability) gap. It has been proved that Fibonacci quasi-periodic 1D ternary superconductor dielectric photonic crystals (SDPCs) have a superior feature in the enhancement of OBGs frequency ranges compared with the conventional binary dielectric photonic crystals (DPCs).
