Abstract :
In this paper, Photonic Band Gap (PBG) structure of two-dimensional Photonic Crystal (2D PC) using circular rods is presented. The variation of PBG with respect to rod radius, lattice constant and dielectric constant of the material is studied for ITU-T G.694.2 Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) systems. The band gap is calculated using Plane Wave Expansion (PWE) method. Further, effect of filling factor and position of the lattice is examined using Bandsolve simulator of Rsoft.
