“…For the first band gap, the relative size of the band gap f relative is larger in the presence of water for the band structure, SEM, FEM, and FBG experimental results. For many applications, the larger relative size of the band gap is preferable [26,27]. However, it is interesting to note that while decreasing the band-gap width and the center frequency, the relative size of the band gap also decreases for the second band gap when there is fluid-solid coupling.…”
