Abstract
We discuss a new photonic crystal structure that arise out of including extremely thin metallic inserts in a standard dielectric photonic crystal (DPC). This particular case of Metal Dielectric photonic crystal (MDPC) preserve features from both. Metal and dielectric PC. Our discussion in a in a microsphere analyses the dependence of the dielectric width oD and the metallic width oM respectively, as functions of the refraction index difference and the metal thickness d.
