Abstract
Employing the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method, we study the filtering properties of twodimensional plasma photonic crystals. We show that the transmission spectra of the defects in the plasma photonic crystals vary with change in the defect location, its radius, the plasma frequency, and the frequency of electron–ion collisions in the plasma. We demonstrate that the two-dimensional defect structure from the viewpoint of its frequency characteristic (such as an adjustable filter characteristic) is similar to the one-dimensional structure. We find that by changing the parameters of the defect location, the plasma frequency, and the frequency of electron–ion collisions in the plasma, one can obtain different ranges of transmission peaks at different frequencies, which fully reflects the adjustable filter characteristics of the structure. Therefore, the two-dimensional structure is more important than the one-dimensional structure, and it can be used to produce actual microwave devices.
