Abstract

Optimal design of a two-dimensional photonic crystal with a square lattice of air holes in GaAs is considered. It is shown how a maximum complete two-dimensional band gap is obtained by optimally connecting the dielectric rods with veins. The complete two-dimensional bandgap of our optimal design reaches $\mathrm{\Delta }\omega =0.0762(2\pi c/a)\hspace{0.5em}(a$ is the lattice constant).
