Abstract
In this paper, we study a multichannel filter by using one dimensional (1D) metallo-dielectric photonic crystal (PC). First, the
band gap width (BGW) is examined in normal incidence. Next, we investigate transmission spectra in terms of wavelength
for different number of defect layers. Also, we show the influence of different angles of incidence on BGW and wavelength
of defect mode in transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM) polarizations on the plane of wavelength and
incident angle. Then, we demonstrate the effect of different thicknesses of defect layer on transmission spectra. Besides,
we investigate transmittance in terms of wavelength and its dependence on the different thickness of dielectric defect layer.
Furthermore, we demonstrate that by increasing the number of defect layer and also by increasing thickness of defect layer,
the defect mode will be increased. The theoretical analysis shows this structure of combined PC can use as a multichannel
filter within a certain wavelength range..
