ABSTRACT

Remarkable oscillating wave is observed instead of monotonic decaying feature inside onedimensional photonic crystal when conventional SiO2-air composition is replaced by DNG material-air combination; and operating wavelength is set just below or above Bragg wavelength (1.55 μm). Results are observed for nano-fishnet with rectangular void, elliptical void and paired nanorod structures. Coupling coefficient between forward and backward propagating waves is varied for all the structures independently. Result speaks in favor of guided transmission in metamaterial based photonic crystal for optical communication for longer length with negligible loss.
