Octonacci photonic quasicrystals

We study theoretically the transmission spectra in one-dimensional photonic quasicrystals, made up of iO2(A) and TiO2(B) materials, organized following the Octonacci sequence, where the nth-stage of the multilayer Sn is given by the rule Sn ¼ Sn1Sn2Sn1, for n P 3 and with S1 ¼ A and S2 ¼ B.

Resumo:We study theoretically the transmission spectra in one-dimensional photonic quasicrystals, made up of iO2(A) and TiO2(B) materials, organized following the Octonacci sequence, where the nth-stage of the multilayer Sn is given by the rule Sn ¼ Sn1Sn2Sn1, for n P 3 and with S1 ¼ A and S2 ¼ B. The expression for transmittance was obtained by employing a theoretical calculation based on the transfer-matrix method. For normally incident waves, we observe that, for a same generation, the transmission spectra for transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM) waves are equal, at least qualitatively, and they present a scaling property where a self-similar behavior is obtained, as an evidence that these spectra are fractals. The spectra show regions where the omnidirectional band gaps emerges for specific generations of Octonacci photonic structure, except to TM waves. For TE waves, we note that all of them have almost the same width, for different generations. We also report the localization of modes as a consequence of the quasiperiodicity of the heterostructure
