Popis: We investigate the resonance tunneling modes of photonic double quantum well made of two photonic crystals with two different single-negative materials. It is found that these resonance modes split pairs, due to a coupling between two photonic wells. It is observed that when two photonic quantum wells are far away from each other, resonance modes appear as a single peak. And the quality factors of the transmittance resonance peaks can be greatly improved by increasing the period number of the outer barrier. The effects of the losses coming from ENG and MNG materials on the resonance modes are also specifically explored.
