Bigyrotropic photonic crystals

Abstract: Electromagnetic wave propagation in a one-dimensional magnetic photonic crystal made of bigyrotropic magnetic yttrium-iron garnet and nonmagnetic gadolinium-gallium garnet is theoretically investigated using the 4×4 transfer matrix method for longitudinal magneto-optical configuration. Band gaps in the electromagnetic spectrum are numerically obtained and appear to depend on the helicity and direction of light propagation through the magnetic photonic crystal.

“…For example, a one-dimensional thin film MSL is known to possess properties that cannot be reduced to those of the separate layers. Also, phenomena such as giant magnetoresistance (GMR) 1 , large out-of-plane magnetic anisotropy 2 , and magnetic field controlled photonic 3 and magnonic [4][5][6] band gaps have been observed. However, in other situations MSLs can be thought of as "effective media" with "effective" parameters 7 that represent an average of those of the constituent layers.…”

“…15 For this reason, the defect modes have been used for filters only under the limit of the normal incidence being at a particular wavelength; otherwise, transmission peaks appear at the other wavelengths under oblique incidence. [16][17][18] Recently, compared with traditional all-dielectric Fabry-Pérot interference filters, 19,20 various designs have been proposed for novel features, such as graphene, 21 superconductor, [22][23][24] semiconductor, 25 and liquid crystal 26 -dielectric PCs. To overcome the angular effect influences, some innovative reports have been published, in which negative refractive-index materials, 27 hyperbolic metamaterials, 28,29 and so on were selected as special performance materials to achieve insensitivity to incident angle and polarization.…”

“…The one-dimensional nanostructures of photonic crystals with bismuth-substituted iron garnet (Bi: IG) layers are perspective for magnetooptical (MO) sensors in optoelectronic devices allowed significant rotation of the polarization plane of the transmitted light. One of the first proposed structures in magnetophotonics was the microcavity based on nonmagnetic dielectric Bragg mirrors (BM) and a Bi: IG layer [1][2][3][4][5]. In such structures, Faraday and Kerr rotation enhancement is achieved most effectively.…”
