Abstract

In this study, the transfer matrix method is used to analyze the optical properties of a layered structure, {Air(SrTiO3/BSCCO)20Substrate}, consisting of air, SrTiO3, BSCCO (bismuth strontium calcium copper oxide) bilayers, and a substrate. This paper aims to investigate the transmittance spectra of two proposed one-dimensional (1D) structures, including a conventional superconductor photonic crystal (PC) and a gyroidal superconductor PC at infrared (IR) wavelengths. A comprehensive analysis has been carried out to provide useful insights into the optical properties and the behavior of the proposed structure, highlighting the impact of many parameters, such as refractive index, filling fraction, and layer thickness. The numerical findings showed that the permittivity of the BSCCO superconductor of a gyroidal geometry takes a different response compared to the conventional one. Notably, the filling fraction and refractive index of the host material have a significant control on both real and imaginary parts of the gyroidal BSCCO permittivity through the considered wavelengths. Thus, the proposed design provides high transmittivity outside the obtained photonic band gap compared to the conventional one. We believe that the designed one-dimensional gyroidal BSCCO photonic crystals could act as an efficient reflector through near IR for optoelectronics and energy applications.
