Simulation of simultaneous photonic and phononic band gaps in Sapphire

The simultaneous existence of photonic and phononic band gaps in a simple square periodic array of holes drilled in sapphire substrate is investigated theoretically. The investigations are focused in a first part on a photonic gap obtaining with a phononic gap in the same time making use of some spe...
