Abstract :
The aim of this article is to report our work on developing a simulation tool, based on PWE (plane wave expansion) method, to analyze PBG structure consisting of general complex media. In addition, some simulated results for typical 2-D PBG structure consisting of chiral medium are given, which shows that the appropriate chirality can obviously enhance the width of band-gap.
