Abstract :
A new type of metallic photonic bandgap is proposed which has a wider forbidden frequency band than currently available photonic bandgap materials. Inspired by natural photonic bandgap materials, such as that in butterfly wings, the proposed bandgap material is suitable for microwave and infrared applications
