Complete and absolute photonic bandgaps in highly symmetric photonic quasicrystals embedded in low refractive index materials

It is firmly established that periodic lattice structures can support photonic bandgaps (PBG). However, complete and absolute photonic bandgaps (CAPBG) have only been achieved in high dielectric constant mediums such as GaAs (ε=13.6). An artificial quasiperiodic photonic crystal based on the random...
