| Popis: |
The transmittance of waves through one-dimensional periodic and Octonacci photonic structures was studied using the theoretical transfer matrix method for both wave-polarization-modes. The first structures were made up of the SiO2 and TiO2 materials. The objective here was to obtain a broad omnidirectional high reflector covering the infrared spectrum of a thermographic camera [1–14 µm] and, especially, to prevent the transmission of emitted human body peak radiation λmax = 9.341 µm. By comparing the periodic and Octonacci structures, we found that the last structure presented a main and wide photonic band gap near this human radiation. For that, we kept only the Octonacci structure for the rest of the study. The first structure did not give the aspired objective; thus, we replaced the TiO2 layers with yttrium barium copper oxide material, and a significant enhancement of the omnidirectional photonic band gap was found for both TE and TM polarization modes. It was shown that the width of this band was sensitive to the Octonacci iteration number and the optical thickness (by changing the reference wavelength), but it was not affected by the ambient temperature. The number of layers and the thickness of the structure was optimized while improving the omnidirectional high reflector properties. |
