Sensitivity Analysis of Bandgaps for 2-D Photonic Crystals

Periodic dielectric structures, which are called photonic crystals or photonic lattices, have attracted many interests in recent years. The existence of band gaps, which prohibits the propagation of electromagnetic waves in any direction, provides an opportunity to confine and control the propagation of electromagnetic waves.
This study aims at the influence of photonic band gaps which are brought by the errors because of the procedures of manufacturing. It is simulated that the crystal structures of 2-D square, triangular and honeycomb lattice, and the dielectric rods of circular and square whose size and form are little different from original design system. Consequently, it is found that the band gaps of 2-D photonic square lattice composed of cylinders, and triangular lattice composed of cylinders or square rods are different from original design system.
