Characteristics of the photonic bandgaps (PEGs) in two-dimensional photonic crystals (2D PCs) with a square lattice have theoretically studied using a finite difference time domain (FDTD) simulation. In this paper, we propose a concept of optical coverage ratio (OCR) as a new structural parameter to determine the PEGs for E-polarized light. The OCR is an optically compensated filling factor. It is possible to normalize the PEGs of 2D PCs by introducing the OCR.

Characteristics of the photonic bandgaps (PBGs) in two-dimensional photonic crystals (2D PCs) with a hexagonal lattice have theoretically studied using a finite difference time domain (FDTD) simulation. In this research, we propose a concept of optical coverage ratio (OCR) as a new structural parameter to determine the PBGs for E-polarized light. The OCR is an optically compensated filling factor. It is possible to normalize the PBGs of 2D PCs by introducing the OCR.

본 논문에서는 우수한 광학 특성으로 활발히 연구되고 있는 광자결정(PCs)과 이를 변형시킨 광자준결정(PQCs) 구조를 설계하고 특성을 평가, 비교하였다. 특성 평가는 cubic 및 hexagonal 기본격자의 PCs와 8-fold PQC 구조를 비교하였으며 각각 동일한 충진률 동일한 굴절률 차이의 조건을 갖도록 설계하여 구조에 따른 PBGs 변화를 살펴보았다. 계산 방법은 Maxwell 방정식을 이용한 finite difference time domain (FDTD) 전산모사법을 사용하였다. 본 연구의 결과로부터 잘 설계된 2차원 PQCs는 낮은 굴절률차이(${\Delta}n$)의 물질 구조에서도 완전한 광자밴드갭(photonic bandgaps: PBGs)를 가질 수 있다는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구진은 다중회전 홀로그래피 방법 (multi-rotational holographic method)을 이용하여 설계된 PQCs를 완벽하게 재현하려는 공정을 진행 중에 있다.
