Abstract
In this study, the optical bandgap PBG is a fundamental property of photonic crystals PhC, significantly controlling their ability to guide and transmit electromagnetic waves within specific frequency ranges. This bandgap arises as a result of the periodic arrangement of the photonic crystal structure, resulting in optical gaps similar to the electronic gaps in semiconductors. The width of the optical bandgap is a critical factor determining the efficiency and utility of photonic crystals in various applications such as routers, filters, and sensors. Several physical and engineering factors, such as material properties, lattice structure, and crystal dimensions, significantly influence the size and behavior of the optical bandgap. Studying the influence of these factors is essential for improving the performance of photonic crystals and adapting them to various applications in fields such as optical communications, imaging, and optical transmission technologies. This research aims to analyze the effect of these factors on the optical bandgap width, contributing to a better understanding of the mechanisms that control the performance of these materials in practical applications.
