ABSTRACT
This work presents the design proposal of graphene induced photonic multi-
layer structure with quasiperiodic arrangement. It also presents a study of the
transmission spectra of these structures, and investigates properties suitable for
potential bandgap engineering and filtering applications. We employ the trans-
fer matrix method to obtain the transmission spectrum output of multilayer pho-
tonic structure, and use MATLAB to simulate transmission spectrum of various
types of quasiperiodic structures. Specifically, we focus on the Fibonacci se-
quence and its two generalizations, the Octonacci and Dodecanacci sequences,
as well as alternating periodic and pseudorandomly generated sequences. We
choose appropriate generation numbers to approximately equalize the number
of layers in the chosen structures. Finally, we present the plot for transmission
versus reduced frequency for each of the three structures, and highlight areas of
localization and high reflectance, along with contour plots visualizing the vari-
ation of transmission magnitude with incident angle and reduced frequency.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my guide, Dr. Chittaranjan Nayak for his valu-
able guidance, consistent encouragement, personal caring, timely help, and providing me with
an excellent atmosphere for doing research. All through the work, despite his busy schedule,
he has extended cheerful and cordial support to me for completing this research work.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
The study of photonic crystals (PCs) began with the publication of several foundational papers
by E. Yablonovitch[10] and S. John[4] in the late 1980s and 1990s, wherein they studied the
ability of intrinsic semiconductor materials to guide and confine the propagation of light. Arti-
ficial materials of this nature eventually went on to acquire the name photonic crystal (PC) in
the literature. Photonic Crystals have become a interesting field of study due to its frequency
filtering and optical switching applications. They are also employed in thin-film optics and
optical transistors.
1.1 Photonic Crystal
Photonic crystals may be defined as structures with definite periodicity, which are artificially
synthesized using one or more dielectric materials having differing permittivities and refractive
indices. They have been known to exhibit certain interesting properties, such as the ability to
inhibit the emission and propagation of electromagnetic radiation through them. This singular
feature gives rise to what are known as photonic bandgaps, which are frequency ranges with
high reflectivity emerging as a consequence of Bragg scattering.[10]
1.2 Types of Photonic Crystal
Photonic crystals can be classified as one dimensional (1-D), two dimensional (2-D), or three
dimensional (3-D) depending on the direction of layer arrangement (see Fig. 1). One dimen-
sional PCs are dielectric materials arranged periodically only in one direction. Similarly, 2-D
and 3-D PCs are dielectric materials arranged periodically in two and three dimensions respec-
tively. Photonic crystals can also be classified as: (i) Periodic, (ii) Quasi-Periodic or long term
periodic (iii) Random, depending on the arrangement of the constituent dielectric elements
in the structure. Periodic Crystals, as the name suggests, have dielectric layers arranged in a
periodic manner, which are repeated over length.
Figure 1.1: Types of PC; (a) 1-D (b) 2-D (c) 3-D
1.3 Photonic-Quasi Crystal and Random PC
A separate category of related structures, first discovered by Shechtman et al. in 1982, known as
photonic quasicrystals (PQCs) has also attracted significant attention. Unlike photonic crystals,
whose constituent dielectric unit cells have regularly and periodically varying optical proper-
ties, the structure of photonic quasicrystals[1] generally adheres to predefined, deterministic
patterns. In other words, the arrangement of the constituent dielectric materials of Photonic
Quasi-Crystal (PQC) follow some well-defined mathematical substitution rule. Some exam-
ples of substitution rule are the Fibonacci, Octonacci and Dodecanacci sequences. Random
photonic crystals (RPC) do not follow any particular mathematical rule, rather the constituent
materials are arranged random in position.

1.4 Graphene Induced Photonic Crystal
Graphene, well known for its host of remarkable material, physical and chemical properties,
affords great promise for novel scientific investigation and pathbreaking technological appli-
cation. In graphene, monolayers of hybridized carbon atoms are structured and attached in a
hexagonal and crystalline lattice form, giving it a two-dimensional arrangement only one-atom
thick. It is a hundred times stronger than steel, as well as one of the lightest materials known.
In addition to such extraordinary material properties, it also boasts several striking physical
properties, such as high thermal and electrical conductivity, and is a perfect absorber of light.
Graphene is increasingly emerging as an important object in the study of photonic crystals and
photonic quasicrystals. In particular, with graphene being considered as a promising candidate
for use as a photonic crystal component, especially in the terahertz region[9], graphene-induced
Photonic Crystal (PC) and PQC have aroused great scientific interest among researchers re-
cently for a variety of reasons. For instance, recent research shows that multi-layered graphene-
interfaced dielectric structures are highly suitable for terahertz bandgap engineering applica-
tions. Peculiar phenomena associated with the transmission spectra of graphene-induced pho-
tonic multilayer structures in the terahertz range have also become an increasingly attractive
area of study.
1.5 Photonic Band Gap
Band-gaps are regions where light transmission is prohibited[10]. Similarly, photonic band gap
are the range of frequencies where there in no light transmission through the crystal. We will
frequently encounter photonic band gaps Photonic Band Gap (PBG)s later in the results. There
are also bandgaps which are introduced when graphene is inserted into the interface of the struc-

ture, these type of bandgaps are known as Graphene Induced Photonic Band Gap (GIPBG)s.
GIPBGs play a major role in these structures as they can be modulated by applying gate voltage
to the graphene layers in the structures. Applying gate voltages changes the chemical poten-
tial of the graphene and modulates the transmission properties of graphene, which is in turn a
consequence of varying band gaps.

CHAPTER 2
LITERATURE SURVEY
In this chapter we would like to discuss the results that have already been obtained in the fields
related to the topic. We would like to state a list of work done previously and their inference,
so that the the readers can get a summary of the work done earlier. The list of literature and
their inference/summary are given below-
1. “Inhibited spontaneous emission in solid-state physics and electronics"[10]
Authors: Yablonovitch, E.
Journal: Phys. Rev. Lett. 58, 2059 – Published 18 May 1987
This paper gave us the first foundation and an introduction to photonic crystals and pho-
tonic band gaps. The author proposed that emission in the the material can be modu-
lated/changed by varying the property of the electromagnetic waves used. Lastly, the
property of emission inhibition was studied in detail. These type of band-gap materials
under study was later termed as Photonic Crystals.
2. "Light propagation in quasiperiodic dielectric multilayers separated by graphene"[4]
Authors: Carlos H. Costa, Luiz F. C. Pereira, Claudionor G. Bezerra
Journal: Phys. Rev. B 96, 125412 – Published 8 September 2017
This paper introduces us to the graphene based photonic quasicrystal, in which graphene
is placed at every interface of the crystal structure. The quasi-crystal sequence used
in this paper is the fibonacci sequence. The results showed us that there are bandgaps
introduced in the transmission of the structure due to graphene and occur below a certain
frequency range.
3. "Transmission spectra in graphene-based octonacci one-dimensional photonic qua-sicrystals"[7]
Authors: E.F. Silva, C.H. Costa, M.S. Vasconcelo, D.H.A.L. Anselmo
Journal: Optical Materials. 10.1016/j.optmat.2018.06.031.
The paper introduces us to the octonacci sequence which is a variant of the fibonacci
sequence. Two materials are considered and graphene sheet is introduced at every space
between the layers. The study is done in the high frquency (Terahertz) range.The authors
also vary the chemical potential of the graphene sheets to modulate the photonic bandgap
regions in study. Absorption, Reflection, and Transmission was studied for both TE and
TM waves.
4. "Effects of graphene on light transmission spectra in Dodecanacci photonic qua-sicrystals"[8]
Authors: E.F. Silva, M.S. Vasconcelos, C.H. Costa, D.H.A.L. Anselmo, V.D. Mello
Journal: Optical Materials. 98. 109450. 10.1016/j.optmat.2019.109450.
The paper introduces the Dodecanacci sequence which yet again is a variant of the fi-
bonacci sequence. Two materials were considered in the work and graphene was placed
between the individual layers. TE and TM spectrum was studied in detail and effects
of graphene on photonic band-gap were recorded. Lastly, a varying gate potential was
applied to the graphene sheets to change the chemical potential and hence modulate the
band-gap regions.
5. "Optical properties of periodic, quasi-periodic, and disordered one-dimensional pho-tonic structures"[1]
Authors: Michele Bellingeri, Alessandro Chiasera, Ilka Kriegel, Francesco Scotognella
Journal: Optical Materials. 72. 10.1016/j.optmat.2017.06.033.
This paper takes into account various periodic and quasi periodic sequences and the au-
thors try to study the transmission spectra. The study mainly focuses on how taking
different materials of varying refractive index changes the bandgaps. Additionally, the
variation of transmission spectra when a defect is introduced in one of the materials is
studied and results were published.

CHAPTER 3
THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
This project mainly focuses on comparing the transmission of different structures in the ter-
ahertz range. The dielectric materials under study here follow Fibonacci, Octonacci, Dode-
canacci and random arrangements. Additionally, we also introduce graphene between the inter-
face of the dielectric materials and study the behaviour of transmission spectra when graphene
is introduced. We take five structures with nearly 600 layers each following periodic, Oc-
tonacci, Dodecanacci and random arrangement. Our objective is to study the transmission of
electromagnetic wave by plotting the contour plots of transmission as a function of both inci-
dent angle of wave and reduced frequency. Study of transmission spectra includes the study
of both Transverse Electric (TE) and Transverse magnetic (TM) waves with the frequency of
wave under study is taken in terahertz (1012Hertz)(3.0). In the subsequent sections we will
discuss about the structures, methodology and results in detail.
3.1 Fibonacci Structure
The Fibonacci multilayer structure is constructed by juxtaposing two dielectric layers and,
and arranging the constituent layers according to the Fibonacci sequence. Its nthgeneration
formation is given by the following mathematical relation [2]:
Sn = Sn−1Sn−2
According to the above formula, the nthgeneration of the Fibonacci structure can be obtained
simply by affixing the (n-1)thand (n-2)thgenerations of the structure together, with initial con-
ditions set as S0 = Band S1 = A. Alternatively, the method of construction may also be
represented by a substitution or inflation rule, which explicitly lays out the formation of the
multilayer structure in terms of its constituent elements. It is given below as:
A → AB,B → A
Figure 3.1: Geometric representation of fibonacci photonic multilayer [2]
By following this rule, the first few generations of the Fibonacci structure can therefore
be obtained as follows: S0 = [B], S1 = [A], S2 = [A|B], S3 = [A|B|A]. Since our goal is
to optimize the structures such that the number of layers contained in them is approximately
equal, we consider generation number n = 14 in our work. The corresponding structure consists
of constituent layers.
3.2 Octonacci Structure
Similarly, the construction of the Octonacci multilayer structure also involves appending di-
electric layers and and arranging them according to the Octonacci sequence [7]. The formation
corresponding to generation number ’n’ is mathematically given as:
Sn = Sn−1Sn−2Sn−1, (n ≥ 3)
Initial conditions are set as S1 = Aand S2 = B, and the formula illustrates that for some
generation number , the structure is obtained by attaching two (n-1)thgeneration structures to
one (n-2)thgeneration structure in the manner given in the above mathematical relation. This is
8
more easily shown with the inflation rule:
A → B,B → BAB
Again, we present the structures corresponding to the first few generations for the Octonacci
sequence as follows: S1 = [A], S2 = [B], S3 = [B|A|B], S4 = [B|A|B|B|A|B]. We consider
generation number n = 9 in our work, as the corresponding structure contains constituent layers,
which is quite close to the number of layers contained in the previously considered Fibonacci
structure. The number of elements in the structure can be found out by Pell number
Pn = 2Pn−1 + Pn−2 (3.1)
( initial conditions being P1 = 1, P2 = 1and n≥ 3), so the number of elements in the structure
in the nthstage is given by Pn. The ratio of the number of elements B and A is given by
τ = 1 +√2, given that n→ ∞.
Figure 3.2: Geometric representation of octonacci photonic multilayer [7]
3.3 Dodecanacci Structure
Finally, we arrive at the Dodecanacci structure[8]. Its construction rule is given by the following
mathematical formula:
Sn = (ASn−2Sn−1)2Sn−1, (n ≥ 3)
Here, as with the previous two considered cases, we represent the two dielectric layers
which are to be juxtaposed. The precise manner of juxtaposition is given by the mathematical
9
formula [8] shown above, and is more explicitly illustrated by the following substitution rule:
A → AAAB,B → AAB
For the Dodecanacci structure, we consider generation number 5, which corresponds to
constituent layers. This is suitable for our purposes as it is sufficiently close to the number of
layers contained in our considered Fibonacci and Octonacci structures. The number of elements
in the structure is given by Dn= 4Dn−1- Dn−2 (with D1 = 3and D2 = 11and n≥ 3). The ratio
of Dnto Dn−1is given by τ = 2 +√3, when n→ ∞.
Figure 3.3: Geometric representation of dodecanacci photonic multilayer [8]
3.4 Transfer Matrix Method
In our work we have employed the Transfer Matrix Method (TMM) to evaluate the trans-
mission, absorption and reflection of light through the material. Transfer matrix method is a
mathematical tool used to evaluate the transmission, absorption and reflection of light through
a photonic multilayer by evaluation of matrices of the elements. A matrix is formed for each
dielectric layer and the total Transfer matrix of the the structure is calculated by multiplication
of the individual transfer matrices. The two materials in this work are A (SiO2) , B(TiO2) and
medium C corresponds vacuum. The two important parameters of a multilayer, reflectance (R)
and transmittance (T)[8] [2]can be calculated as:
R =∣∣∣M21
M11
∣∣∣2
10
T =∣∣∣ 1M11
∣∣∣2
Where Mi,j(3.2)corresponds to elements of the transfer matrix. M is calculated for each
structures by finding out the individual element then multiplying them. For instance, for a
fibonacci structure of 2nd generation the transfer matrix becomes -
MT = MCAMAMABMBMBC (3.2)
Which corresponds to structure [AB]. MAand MBcorrespond to layer matrix and MABcorresponds
to the interface matrix and MT stands for total matrix of the multilayer . In thiswork,
MAB,MBA,MBC ,MCB,MAA,MBB
corresponds to interface matrices and MA,MBcorrespond to layer matrices corresponding to
layer A and B. For the graphene interface we need to take into account the optical conductivity
σg = σintra(ω) + σinter(ω)[8][2], which is the sum of the the interband and intraband optical
conductivity and depends on the frequency of operation. Interband frequency will be more
crucial to us due to use of high frequency electromagnetic waves.
3.5 Random Structure
The last structure we are going going to discuss about is the random photonic multilayer[6].
Random structures as stated in the introduction, can be of two types - (i) Random in position,
(ii) Random in width. Random in width photonic crystals consists of periodic multilayer whose
width or thickness is varied according to a probability distribution. In this literature we are only
discussing random in position. Random multilayer (in position) consists of several dielectric
medium arranged without any specific rule or arranged randomly. The number of layers of A
and B in the structure is varied with probability to study the effect of position in the transmis-
sion and bang gaps. There are four structures we consider in the work:
(i) 20% of medium A and 80% of medium B
(ii) 40% of medium A and 60% of medium B
11
(iii) 60% of medium A and 40% of medium B
(iv) 80% of medium A and 20% medium B
All the medium in the four structures are arranged randomly and 600 layers is considered
both with and without graphene .
12
CHAPTER 4
MODEL DESIGN AND SPECIFICATIONS
In this section we will define the layer specifications and the parameters chosen by us. Two ma-
terials Silicon Dioxide (A) and Titanium Dioxide (B) were chosen with refractive indices nA=
1.45 and nB= 2.30 respectively and thickness dA= 10.34 μm, and dB= 6.52 μm. The dimen-
sions are chosen such that they quater-wavelength condition is satisfied. A reduced frequency
of Ω = ωωo
with ωo= 31.4 THz (ωo = 2πcλo
)is selected. Graphene, which inserted at each layer
interface has a frequency dependant optical conductivity σg(ω), and has a chemical potential
μc= 0.2 eV. We selected four structures namely, periodic, Fibonacci, Octonacci, Dodecanacci
and Random with 600, 610, 577, 571, 600 layers respectively which are nearly equal in num-
ber. . Table 4.1 shows the number of layers and generation number of the sequence taken in
our work.

CHAPTER 5
CODING AND SIMULATION
The general scheme followed in this work for simulating various processes and phenomena
associated with electromagnetic propagation through photonic quasicrystal structures using
MATLAB programming may be given as follows.
5.1 Defining the Parameters
First, we define the physical parameters to be used in the simulation of the process and the
mathematical computations involved. This includes a multitude of different variables, such as
central wavelength, thicknesses, refractive indices, permeability constants, conductivity, etc.
These physical constants are basic quantities that are used in the evaluation and computation
of the various mathematical expressions that make up the simulations, therefore defining them
in a manner that circumvents lengthy computation times is very important. Example is given
below -
Code
pi_fv = acos(-1.0d0);
e0 = 8.854e-12;
mu0 = 4.0e-7.*pi_fv;
c = 1.0d0./sqrt(e0.*mu0);
e = 1.602e-19;
hbar = 1.054e-34;
kb = 1.38e-23;
mu = .2d0.*e;
temp = 300.0d0;
beta_fv = mu./(kb.*temp);
lambda0 = 60e-6;
w0 = 2.0d0.*pi_fv.*c./lambda0;
na = complex(1.45d0,0.0d0);
da = lambda0./(4.0d0.*real(na));
nb = complex(2.3d0,0.0d0);
db = real(na./nb).*da;
nc = 1.0d0;
5.2 Defining the Matrix
Secondly, we define the matrices that are used in the transfer matrix method. This section of
the code is especially important since the transfer matrix method lies at the heart of our simu-
lating process; it allows us to compute the outcome of electromagnetic propagation through a
straightforward process of cumulative matrix multiplication. We therefore define the matrices
involved with great care; different sets of matrices are used for TE and TM modes, since the
underlying mathematical variables used are different in the two cases. In defining the matri-
ces, we take into consideration every permutation or configuration of layer arrangement. So
for instance, matrices have been defined for arrangements corresponding to AA, AB, BA, and
BB, as well as for arrangements where interfacing with air is involved, so CA and AC. And of
course, in addition to this, we define the matrices for each type of layer involved, namely A,
B, and C. The equations used for defining these matrices and subsequent mathematical com-
putations have all been taken from various sources in the literature; an extensive theoretical
or mathematical treatment is obviously beyond the scope of the present work. We therefore
provide only a brief outline of the mathematical tools and models used. We then define the
sequences according to which the final output matrix (in accordance with the transfer matrix
method, as discussed above) is mathematically determined. These sequences, as mention in
previous sections, follow deterministic, mathematical rules; the ones used in our work are the
Fibonacci sequence and its three variants, as well as alternating, periodic and non-deterministic,
pseudorandomly generated sequences. The precise mathematical form of the transfer matrix
sequence corresponding to each of the structures considered is determined by the spatial or
physical configuration of the constituent elements present within the structures. Therefore, if
15
in some particular expression we have two constituent elements of the same type appended
to each other, the corresponding mathematical form of the expression will include the corre-
sponding matrices of those two elements multiplied in a sequential manner, and exactly in the
manner as present in the actual photonic quasicrystal structure. The recursive nature of the
mathematical rules used to determine the structure of the crystals makes it convenient to write
down the corresponding mathematical expressions in MATLAB code.
Code
% DEFINITION OF THE MATRIX "MA"
ma(1,1) = exp(-i.*kza.*da);
ma(1,2) = complex(0.0d0,0.0d0);
ma(2,1) = complex(0.0d0,0.0d0);
ma(2,2) = exp(i.*kza.*da);
% DEFINITION OF THE MATRIX "MB"
mb(1,1) = exp(-i.*kzb.*db);
mb(1,2) = complex(0.0d0,0.0d0);
mb(2,1) = complex(0.0d0,0.0d0);
mb(2,2) = exp(i.*kzb.*db);
5.3 Output
Finally, we plot the data embodied in the final output matrix after subjecting it to requisite
manipulations for easy visualization. The very final output of the program is a graph of the
transmission spectrum of the structure. The general scheme described in the present section is
used in all of the simulation programs and for all of the structures. The code to extract output
16
for one of the structures is given below as follows:

CHAPTER 6
RESULTS
The principal outcome of the work conducted over the course of the project comprises the plots
of the transmission spectra obtained as a result of running MATLAB simulations of electromag-
netic radiation in the terahertz range passing through the various photonic quasicrystal struc-
tures discussed in previous sections. The PQC structures considered in our work correspond
to various deterministic mathematical rules that are derived from the well-known Fibonacci se-
quence, as well as periodic and random sequences. The spectra obtained are two-dimensional
plots of two quantities, namely transmission and reduced frequency, which allow us to observe
the transmission of high-frequency electromagnetic radiation for patterns and peculiarities. For
instance, we observe the occurrence of curious behaviour in the form of photonic bandgaps in
the neighbourhood of certain reduced frequencies that may be useful for bandgap engineering
applications. In addition to transmission spectra, we also present contour plots which visualizes
magnitude of transmission as a function of both angle of incidence and reduced frequencies,
which enables us to study the behaviour of electromagnetic radiation through PQC structures
across the full range of frequencies and incidence angles considered in the work, as well as
variation of transmission magnitude with chemical potential. This reveals some striking ob-
servations which will be discussed in the present section, along with all other results already
mentioned and pertaining to the work, and the conclusions which follow. They are given below
as follows.
6.1 Transmission Spectra
We first present in this section a set of transmission spectra for TE waves and contour plots
that show the behaviour of the photonic crystals both at specific angles of incidence and the
full range of incidence angles considered. The former is shown as several plots of transmission
spectra appended together with photonic bandgaps highlighted in each plot.
Figure 6.1: Transmission spectra for TE wave of (a)Periodic, (b) Fibonacci, (c)Octonacci and
(d)Dodecanacci sequences for different angles
19
The reason for choosing specific angles of incidence are as follows: it is observed from
the contour plot (in which we plot transmission as a function of angle of incidence and reduced
frequency, with magnitude of transmission indicated by corresponding shades on a colour spec-
trum) that in certain incidence angle ranges, a striking phenomenon occurs, namely, bandgaps
occurring at certain frequency ranges (in the close neighbourhood of reduced frequencies 2, 4,
6 and 8) are interrupted by small regions of transmission. This phenomenon amounts to what
we consider a “switching effect”, wherein we observe that passing electromagnetic radiation at
exactly the right angle through the PQC structure results in a negation of the photonic bandgap
at certain reduced frequencies. Combining such radiations at different incident angles may
produce outcomes favourable to multiplexing or switching applications. The first set of plots
is shown in Figure [6.1]. Bandgaps are shaded and colour coded in order to distinguish the
underlying reasons for their occurrence. For instance, transmission regions shaded in yellow
correspond to the switching phenomenon described above, and bandgaps shaded in green and
purple represent bandgaps corresponding to graphene-induced bandgaps (GIBGs) and Bragg
gaps respectively. The latter two can be seen to be occurring in all the transmission spectra
and at regular instances, whereas the switching phenomenon occurs only at specific angles
highlighted in the plots in the figure. This is an interesting phenomenon that has heretofore
not been observed in any work, and merits further investigation. Moreover, this occurrence
of this phenomenon can be observed in all of the considered structures, which is also strik-
ing. Notwithstanding the internal configuration of the constituent elements or their pattern of
arrangement, certain features, such as the appearance of bandgaps in the neighbourhoods of
regularly separated reduced frequencies (2, 4, 6, 8), as well as the switching phenomenon, can
be seen occurring in all structures without exception. The specific character of the quasiperi-
odic sequences considered give different transmission spectra, to be sure, but such phenomena
seem to be a constant feature across all the considered structures.
6.2 Contour Plots
We present the contour plots, which as mentioned before, show transmission magnitude plotted
as a function of incidence angle and reduced frequency, with magnitude being indicated by
colour shades on a continuous colour spectrum.
20
Figure 6.2: Contour Plot for (a) Periodic, (b) Fibonacci, (c) Octonacci and (d)Dodecanacci
sequences.
21
This enables us to study the behaviour of electromagnetic transmission through the PQC
structures across the whole range of incidence angles and reduced frequency, which allows
us to obtain a holistic understanding of underlying phenomena. In fact, the contour plots are
what allow us to discern the switching phenomenon, as well as gain interesting insights into
general patterns of behaviour. We plot contour plots for both Transvrse Electric (TE) and
Transverse Magnetic (TM) modes of transmission, for all of the structures, and append them
in a fashion that allows us to see the symmetric nature of the contour plots. As indicated by
the colour spectrum provided adjacent to the contour plots, a darker shade corresponds to a
higher magnitude of transmission, whereas a lighter shade indicates the opposite. This method
of plotting gives us a convenient visualization of the transmission spectra across angles and
frequencies. Type I corresponds to structure without graphene and Type II corresponds to
structure with graphene. Contour plots for different structures under study is presented in Fig.
[6.2]
6.3 Random Structure Contour
In addition to periodic and quasiperiodic structures, we also study the behaviour of random
structures, that is, structures whose internal, constituent elements are arranged according to
some pseudorandomly generated sequence. In such structures also, where we tune the varia-
tion of composition of the two types of elements in accordance with different percentages or
ratios, strikingly similar phenomenon can be observed. Graphene induced photonic bandgaps
can be observed at the same reduced frequencies as in periodic and deterministic, quasiperi-
odic structures, and in some cases, a perceptible “switch” can also be discerned, even though
it is obscured by the reduced magnitude of transmission. The relative feebleness of transmis-
sion in the random cases also suggests that internal configuration, or the particular pattern of
arrangement of internal constituent elements, may be crucial in achieving a higher degree of
transmission. This also merits further investigation. The contour plot of Random Structure is
given in Fig. [6.3]

6.4 Enhanced Graphene-Induced Transmission
In this section, we present in detail and tabular form the precise regions where the switch-
ing phenomenon, or enhanced transmission due to graphene interfaces, are occurring. As
mentioned several times previously, this phenomenon can be seen to be occurring in all of
the structures and sequences considered, which is a striking observation and outcome of our
present work. The tables contain rows for each of the four structures (all excluding random,
where the effect is noticeably feeble), and each of the tables correspond to the TE or TM mode
of transmission.Reduced Frequency (RF), Angle of incidence θ (◦ ), Transmission without
Graphene (TWOG) , Transmission with Graphene (TWG) are the four information which are
tabulated for four bandgap regions. They are presented in Table 6.1 and 6.2.

CHAPTER 7
CONCLUSION
The main focus of the present work has been the study of high frequency, terahertz-range elec-
tromagnetic radiation transmission through photonic quasicrystal structures having periodic,
quasiperiodic and random arrangements. The discussion of results has been centred primar-
ily around the transmission spectra and contour plots of the considered structures, obtained
from conducting a number of MATLAB simulations. From the results of these simulations,
we have gleaned several interesting insights into the nature and general behaviour of electro-
magnetic radiation through photonic quasicrystal structures. The observance of the occurrence
of graphene-induced photonic bandgaps at certain regularly spaced frequencies in all of the
structures considered has been a particularly striking outcome of our work. The occurrence
of anomalous transmission regions within those bandgaps corresponding to specific angles of
incidence is also a remarkable observation that merits further theoretical and practical investi-
gation. The fact that such features have been noticed as being almost constant across the variety
of structures and sequences considered in the present work is highly worthy of discussion. The
use of contour plots as a novel means of visualizing the variation of transmission across entire
ranges of incidence angles and frequencies has allowed us to gain insights and draw conclu-
sions that have previously not been documented in the broad literature of photonic quasicrystal
study. We have considered the behaviour of randomly arranged photonic quasicrystals and the
related transmission and contour plots in our work, which is also a novel step. We have as a
result been able to identify close similarities between the general characteristics of transmission
spectra of quasiperiodic structures and random structures, as well as elucidate key differences.
In summary, we believe our work makes innovative and highly original advances in the study
of photonic quasicrystals and their behaviour.
CHAPTER 8
FUTURE ENHANCEMENTS
In this section we will discuss the future prospects of this project. Until now we have varied the
angle of incidence and changed the layer positions randomly by applying different probability
of composition, to study the their effects on PBG and GIPBG . The future works we would like
to propose -
� Varying the temperature to study the effects of temperature on photonic and graphene
induced bandgaps
� Changing chemical potential of graphene sheets by applying gate voltage to individual
graphene sheets.
� Varying the width of individual crystal according to a probability distribution (layer width
modulation), these type of structures are called random-in-width PC.

The study of photonic crystals, artificial materials whose dielectric properties can be tailored according to thestacking of their constituents, remains an attractive research field, and it is the basis of photonic devices based onthe generation, processing, and storage of photons. In this paper, we employ a transfer-matrix treatment to studythe propagation of light waves in periodic, quasiperiodic (Fibonacci, Octonacci, and Dodecanacci), and randomdielectric multilayers with graphene embedded. The structures considered here are composed of two buildingblocks, silicon dioxide (building block A = SiO2) and titanium dioxide (building block B = TiO2). We calculatetheir transmission spectra as a function of incident angle θ and reduced frequency �. Our main goal is to investigatethe enhancement of the transmission due to the presence of graphene. In particular, we show that bandgap regionsbecome passband regions when graphene is embedded in the optical multilayers. More specifically, for a rangeof the incident angle θ and reduced frequency �, the PCs with graphene embedded display an unexpected prop-erty: the electromagnetic radiation is transmitted mainly through the multilayers and not reflected or absorbed asexpected for large structures. ©2020Optical Society of America

1. INTRODUCTION
The study of photonic crystals (PCs) started in 1987 with theindependent seminal works of E. Yablonovitch [1] and S. John[2]. Those authors investigated the capability of semiconductormaterials to guide and confine the propagation of light. PCsmay be defined as structures consisting of alternating layers oftwo or more different dielectric materials, so that the artificiallysynthesized structure as a whole presents a spatially periodicpermittivity function [3]. In recent years, a lot of research efforthas been made towards the understanding and applications ofPCs, concerning fabrication [4], prisms [5], lenses [6–9], filters[10,11], photonic quasiperiodic fibers (PQFs) [12–18], sensors[19], metasurfaces [20], surface waves [21], etc. Among all veryinteresting properties presented by PCs, one in particular makesthese systems excellent options for technological applicationsand attractive objects of research: the emergence of frequencyregions, named photonic bandgaps (PBGs), for which there isno emission or propagation of electromagnetic waves throughthe structure [22,23]. As a consequence, PCs work as high
reflectivity mirrors [24]. Usually the most common way for theformation of a PBG is Bragg scattering (conventional PBG)because it can occur in any photonic system [25]. However,PBGs can also be formed by the zero average refraction index(n̄ = 0 PBG) or phase conditions (φ̄ = 0 PBG), for example,in left-handed materials (LHMs) [26]. Finally, when the PCpresents a surface optical conductivity, a PBG can emerge aswell. For instance, one can observe a graphene induced PBG(GIPBG) in PCs with embedded graphene [27].
Parallel to these developments in the field of PCs, the proper-ties of a special and interesting class of structures, first discoveredby Shechtman et al. [28] in 1984 and known as quasiperiodiccrystals or quasicrystals (QCs), have been also widely investi-gated. One of the most important reasons is that they can bedefined as an intermediate state between an ordered crystal(their definition and construction follow purely deterministicrules) and a disordered solid (many of their physical propertiesexhibit an erratic-like appearance) [29,30]. Hence, QCs presentforbidden symmetries by classical crystal rules and long-range

correlation order [31]. When the alternating layers composingthe PC are arranged according to a quasiperiodic sequence(with a well-defined mathematical substitution rule), so thatthe constituent dielectric function varies quasiperiodically,we have the so-called one-dimensional (1D) photonic QCs(1DPQCs) [32,33]. On the other hand, if the alternating layerscomposing the PC are arranged in a random fashion, for exam-ple, by following some probability function such as a Gaussiandistribution [34,35], we have a 1D random PC (1DRPC),for which disorder-induced localization, delocalization, andinter-transition effects can be observed [36,37].
Graphene, the two-dimensional allotropic form of the carbonwhere atoms with s p2 hybridization are strongly and denselyattached creating a planar hexagonal crystalline lattice, has beenhailed by many as the new silicon of the 21st century. This mate-rial is nearly 200 times stronger than steel, flexible, good for lightabsorption, and highly conductive to heat and electricity. Withthose remarkable physical properties, graphene is currently inthe scientific limelight not only for possessing tremendous tech-nological potential but also for having opened several avenues ofbasic science exploration [38,39]. Recently, a new and interest-ing research field, called graphene nanophotonics (GN) [40,41],has emerged. GN deals with optical systems in which grapheneis integrated in the structure under investigation, usually withmaterials that operate in the terahertz frequency region [42]. Inparticular, 1D graphene-based PCs and PQCs have attractedinterest from researchers because they are highly suitable forterahertz bandgap engineering applications [27].
In the present work, we intend to investigate more deeply theeffects of inserting graphene at the interfaces of two different—non-dispersive and non-magnetic—dielectric layers (labeledas A and B) in 1D PCs (1DPCs). The structures were numer-ically investigated by employing the powerful transfer-matrixmethod (TMM), which simplifies the algebra [27,43]. Theoptical multilayers considered in this work are spatially arrangedaccording to a periodic sequence, quasiperiodic sequences (suchas Fibonacci [34], Octonacci [44], and Dodecanacci [45]), andalso random sequences [46]. One should remark that, unlikewhat was done in previous works, we choose some specific gen-erations for each sequence (periodic, quasiperiodic, or random)to obtain similar multilayer sizes [34,47]. Later, we give moredetails about the structures considered here.
This work is organized as follows. In Section 2, we presentthe physical model based on the TMM to solve the Maxwell’sequations for electromagnetic waves in 1D graphene-based PCs.The physical parameters considered here as well as the numericalresults are presented and discussed in detail in Section 3. Finally,our findings are summarized in Section 4.
2. PHYSICAL MODEL AND TRANSFER-MATRIXMETHOD
The materials considered in this work are silicon dioxide (SiO2),denoted by A, titanium dioxide (TiO2), denoted by B , vac-uum, denoted by C , and graphene, represented by its opticalconductivity σg . The system is schematically presented inFig. 1, where we present a periodic 1DPC consisting of alter-nating unit cells A|B juxtaposed to form the periodic finitearray |A|B |A|B | · · · |A|B |. This array is surrounded by a

semi-infinite media C , which is considered to be vacuum. Thephysical parameters of the optical media are the thicknesses(dA and dB ) and dielectric permittivities (εA, εB , and εC ).
The graphene embedded at the interfaces is modeled by afrequency-dependent conductivity σg (ω) composed of twocontributions: (i) the intraband σ intra
g (ω) (related to the scat-tering from phonons, electrons, and impurities); and (ii) theinterband σ inter
g (ω) (related to the electron–hole recombi-nation) [48]. The explicit form of the graphene’s surfaceconductivity is given by [49]
σg (ω) = σ intrag (ω) + σ inter

Here e is the electronic charge, � is the Planck’s constant, kB

Itis known from the literature that for �ω much smaller thanthe chosen chemical potential, the interband contribution isneglectable [48]. As a consequence, the light propagation will bemore affected by the presence of graphene in the low frequencyregion, as was shown by Costa et al. [27].
A quasiperiodic structure can be experimentally constructedby juxtaposing two building blocks A and B followingFibonacci, Octonacci, and Dodecanacci sequences (seeRef. [50]). A Fibonacci sequence SN is generated by appendingthe N − 2 sequence to the N − 1 one, i.e., SN = SN−1SN−2
(N ≥ 2). This construction algorithm requires initial conditionschosen as S0 = B and S1 = A. The Octonacci sequence growsin such a way that its Nth stage is iteratively given by the ruleSN = SN−1SN−2SN−1, for N ≥ 3, with S1 = A and S2 = B .Finally, the Nth generation of the Dodecanacci sequence can beiteratively obtained by the rule SN = (ASN−2SN−1)
2SN−1, forN ≥ 3, with S1 = A AB and S2 = (AS1)

Octonacci generation (577 slabs), and the fifth Dodecanaccigeneration (571 slabs), as summarized in Table 1. Regardingthe periodic structure, the unit cell is repeated 300 times so thatwe get a structure with equivalent size, i.e., 600 slabs. For therandom sequence, we use a random number generator functionthat chooses between two letters, A and B , and create a chainwith 600 of these letters, considering a given probability ofoccurrence of the letter A, p(A). For each value of p(A), weconsider four random sequences, which has been found to be areasonable minimum quantity to obtain reliable conclusions.
We consider that a transverse electric (TE or s ) or magnetic(TM or p) polarized monochromatic electromagnetic wave,traveling from left to the right in vacuum with angular frequencyω and wave-vector �k = (kx , kz), obliquely reaches the photonicmultilayer (distributed along z direction) at an angle θ fromthe normal (see Fig. 1).

3. NUMERICAL RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
In this section, we present the numerical results and discussionconcerning our investigation. The physical parameters con-sidered in the numerical simulations are: the refraction indicesand dielectric constants n A = √
εA = 1.45, nB = √εB = 2.30,
and nC = √εC = 1; the thicknesses dA = 10.34 μm and
dB = 6.52 μm; the graphene’s chemical potential μc = 0.2 eV;and temperature TK = 300 K. Here we take the graphene’sdamping constant � = 0 eV because it does not substan-tially affect the position or width of the PBGs, which is theaim of our work. In fact, it only qualitatively changes theprobability of transmission [49]. It is important to mentionthat the thicknesses were calculated considering the quarter-wavelength condition of d j = λ0/4n j ( j = A or B), suchthat n AdA = nB dB . Also, λ0 is the central wavelength, and theresults are given in terms of the reduced frequency defined as
3804 Vol. 37, No. 12 / December 2020 / Journal of the Optical Society of America B Research Article
= ω/ω0, where ω0 = 2πc/λ0 ≈ 31.4 rad · THz for a centralwavelength λ0 = 60 μm, chosen so that both dielectrics behaveas non-dispersive media. We also remark that we have chosen alarge number of slabs, around 600 slabs, to guarantee that thetransmission spectra of the finite structures correspond to thedispersion relation of the infinite structures, as was investigatedby Costa and Vasconcelos [51], where it was shown that, asthe system grows up, the unit cell needs to be repeated a fewernumber of times so that the transmission spectra present thesame passbands and bandgaps of the dispersion relation spectra.
The electromagnetic wave transmission T is plotted as a func-tion of the reduced frequency (from zero to 10, correspondingto zero to 314 rad · THz) and the incident angle θ (from 0◦ to90◦). In Fig. 3, we show the spectra for the sequences: (a) peri-odic, (b) Fibonacci, (c) Octonacci, and (d) Dodecanacci;in Fig. 4, we show the spectra for different probabilities oflayer A of the random sequence, namely: (a) p(A) = 0.2,(b) p(A) = 0.4, (c) p(A) = 0.6, and (d) p(A) = 0.8. In bothfigures, we present results for optical multilayers with (WG) andwithout (WOG) graphene embedded in the structures. Thecolor scale at the top of the figures represents magnitude of the

light transmission coefficient on a scale from zero (bright color)to one (black color), so that regions of the plots having darker(brighter) shades represent high (low) transmission coefficients.Therefore, each point on the contour plots corresponds to agiven pair composed of the angle of incidence and reducedfrequency, as well as the color corresponding to the transmissioncoefficient magnitude. This method of visualization allows usto easily determine the PBGs occurring across the full range ofangles and frequencies.
In general, it can be seen that all structures present similarspectra regarding the bandgaps and alternating patterns of darkand bright regions, which occur in both figures for all struc-tures considered here. Interestingly, in addition to the widerbandgaps occurring at regular intervals of frequency, we alsoobserve narrow bright regions emerging in the middle of everytransmission band. These narrow PBGs occur around values ofthe reduced frequencies ∼ 2, 4, 6, 8. For the WOG case, asthe incident angle θ decreases, the tiny bandgaps vanish, and thelight transmission does occur for 0 < θ< 15◦. In Fig. 3, con-sidering the WG case, in the low frequency region ( ≤ 0.28,ω ≤ 9 rad · THz), we observe the presence of GIPBG for all val-ues of the incident angle θ . This omnidirectional bandgap wasalready reported, and its physical origin is explained in Ref. [27].
Research Article Vol. 37, No. 12 / December 2020 / Journal of the Optical Society of America B 3805
Furthermore, for around two, four, six, and eight, we canalso observe narrow GIPBGs for normal incidence (θ= 0◦).As a matter of fact, these narrow GIPBGs are not omnidirec-tional bandgaps, since they depend on the incident angle θ .For instance, in Fig. 3(a) and considering TM waves, for θ
between 45◦ and 60◦, the narrow GIPBGs around = 2 van-ish, and transmission of the electromagnetic waves does occur.Therefore, for a range of incident angles and reduced frequency,PCs with graphene embedded display an unexpected property:the electromagnetic radiation is transmitted mainly through themultilayer and not reflected or absorbed as expected for largestructures [52]. In order to take a closer look at our numericalresults, we labeled the GIPBGs that emerge at ∼ 2, 4, 6, 8 asbandgaps �, �, �, �, respectively. The numerical results areorganized in Table 2 for the periodic and quasiperiodic cases cor-responding to Fig. 3 for both TE and TM waves, while Tables 3and 4 summarize the results for random sequences with dataextracted from Fig. 4 for TE and TM waves, respectively.
For comparison purposes, Table 2 presents the value of thetransmission coefficient for without graphene (TWOG) andwith graphene (TWG) cases, considering specific values of thereduced frequencies and incident angle θ within the PBGs ofthe graphene-free structures. Our numerical results show that,for given values of and θ , the optical transmission is enhancedby the presence of graphene for all bandgaps and structures con-sidered here. For example, the Dodecanacci case transmissionincreases, due to the presence of graphene, to at least 36.9%,reaching up to 76.4% (highlighted in bold and underlined inthe table).
As we can observe from Table 2, those considerable gains inthe transmission occur for the four bandgap regions, provingthe strong influence of the graphene on the optical structuresconsidered here. However, we should observe that for bandgaps� and �, the enhancement of the transmission is ≥ 55%,while for bandgaps � and �, the enhancement of the trans-mission is ≤ 50%. The explanation for this relies on the factthe graphene optical conductivity decreases as the reducedfrequency increases, thus making the influence of graphene onthe propagation of the electromagnetic wave less effective [27].
After addressing PCs that follow periodic and Nacci fam-ily quasiperiodic sequences, we also investigated in our workstructures whose constituent elements A and B are arrangedaccording to random sequences generated via a given value ofp(A), which is the occurrence probability of the material A inthe structure. For instance, for p(A) = 0.2, we have 20% of Alayers and 80% of B layers; for p(A) = 0.4, we have 40% of Alayers and 60% of B layers; for p(A) = 0.6 and 0.8, we have60% of A layers and 40% of B layers, and 80% of A layers and20% of B layers, respectively. Also, for each value of p(A), wehave considered four different random sequences and labeledthem as (i), (ii), (iii), and (iv).
The numerical results for 1DRPC are plotted in Fig. 4, fromwhich we can observe a pattern of the contour plots similarto those in Fig. 3, but with the brighter regions dominating,with broad bandgaps and narrow transmission bands, whichmeans that the transmissivity is lower for random structurescompared to the periodic and quasiperiodic arrangements. Infact, a random arrangement of the structure makes difficult theelectromagnetic waves propagation [53]. Also, unlike the results Table

presented in Fig. 3, the bandgap widths in random sequencesincrease as the incident angle increases, even for TM waves,for which the bandgaps slowly increase, and, for the regionaround = 2 and θ= 60◦, they even get closed. Furthermore,it is very interesting that even in these non-deterministic cases,PBGs occur around the same reduced frequencies, i.e., = 2,4, 6, 8. This is a consequence of the strong influence of thequarter-wavelength condition employed to design the slabsthicknesses [54].
Similar to the periodic and quasiperiodic cases, the trans-mission is enhanced within the bandgaps when graphene isembedded in the multilayer. As this statement is not so easyto see in Fig. 4, the data proving the occurrence of this phe-nomenon in random sequences are presented and organized inTable 3, for TE waves, and Table 4, for TM waves. For example,for given values of and θ , the enhancement of the transmis-sion for TE waves is ≥ 22% and ≤ 61.9%; for TM waves, theenhancement of the transmission is ≥ 20.8% and ≤ 74.7%.

Those values are highlighted in bold and underlined in Tables 3and 4. As expected, the enhancement of the transmission ishigher for TM than TE waves considering the same randomstructure for a given value of p(A). Also, the enhancementoccurs around the bandgaps �, �, �, and �, for the four differ-ent random structures considering a given probability p(A). Asbefore, those numerical results confirm the strong influence ofthe graphene presence on the bandgaps and transmission spectraof the optical structures considered here. However, for randomsequences, the enhancement of the transmission is, in mostcases, below 50% for TE waves (despite the bandgap region andthe probability p(A)), while for TM waves, the enhancement ofthe transmission is above 50%, in most cases, with p(A) ≥ 0.4,especially in bandgap �, for which the influence of the grapheneoptical conductivity is stronger.
Finally, we should remark that for p(A) = 0.8, the enhance-ment of the transmission is above 70% for all random structuresinvestigated. This is a very interesting result and makes thesestructures very useful for applications, as logical gates or sensorsbased on PCs, by controlling the number of building layers A(which in our work corresponds to SiO2) [55].
Surely our model can be realized experimentally, althoughsome difficulties may exist. On one hand, fabrication ofgraphene monolayers and transfer onto different substratesis a feasible task, for instance, by exfoliation and chemical meth-ods [56]. On the other hand, the alternation of sputtering SiO2
and TiO2 layers combined with graphene monolayer transfercan be a tough task. This can be a challenging experimentalwork, and we hope that experimentalists are encouraged toface it.
4. CONCLUSION
In summary, we have employed a transfer-matrix treatment tostudy the propagation of electromagnetic waves in 1DPCs madeof two different dielectric slabs (silicon dioxide and titaniumdioxide) separated by graphene. The structures considered inthis work are spatially arranged according to periodic sequence,quasiperiodic Nacci family sequences (Fibonacci, Octonacci,and Dodecanacci), and also random sequences. We calculatedtheir transmission spectra as a function of incident angle θ
and reduced frequency . Our main goal was to investigatethe enhancement of the transmission due to the presence ofgraphene. Our numerical results show a diversity of stop andpass photonic bands. Regarding the polarization of the lightwave, we can observe in Figs. 3 and 4 that the transmissioncoefficient is higher for the TM case than for the TE case, asexpected. In particular, we show that bandgap regions becomepassband regions when graphene is embedded in the opticalmultilayer. More specifically, for a range of incident angles andreduced frequency, the PCs with graphene embedded displayan unexpected property: the electromagnetic radiation is trans-mitted through the multilayers and not absorbed as expectedfor large structures. The enhancement of the transmissionfor periodic and quasiperiodic cases is, in most cases, at least≥ 50%, reaching up to ≥ 76.4%. while for the random cases,the transmission is enhanced, in most cases, at least ≥ 50%,reaching up to ≥ 76.4%.
