Abstract:This study uses the transfer matrix method to calculate the transmittance spectrum of a one-dimensional photonic crystal (1D-PC). Herein, the crystal is composed of alternating layers of barium titanate ferroelectric and yttrium oxide dielectric. The spatial periodicity of the 1D-PC is broken by a cavity surrounded by thin layers of a critical high-temperature superconductor, which can be used to detect refractive index changes of plasma cells infiltrated into the cavity. The results reflect the existence of a… Show more
