Abstract

In this paper we proposed a narrow band all optical multi reflectionband filter based on one dimensional photonic crystal structures. The minimum quality factor of our filter is7757and the band gap width of our structure was less than 0.2 nm. We also tested our structure under different incident angles. We also observe that the number of the bi layers has no effect on the band structure of the filter. We used Transfer Matrix Method (TMM) to do our calculations..
