Description

We study the transmission of electromagnetic waves propagating in two-dimensional photonic crystals having triangular structure. The transmission has been calculated using the transfer matrix method. We find that for dielectric constant ratios higher than 12.25, there is a full photonic band gap for both polarizations and for out-of-plane incident angle as high as 85 degree. copyright 1998 The American Physical Society
