In order to find an absolute photonic band gap formation, photonic lattices of two non-uniform square and triangular configurations with different rod radiuses and ring-shaped rods are studied. Based on PWE simulations, it was possible to achieve PBGs for both TM and TE polarizations by changing parameters such as rod dielectric constants and radius sizes. In the adjusted square lattice, the symmetry reduction opened a 39% PBG width. Both structures’ PBGs are strongly influenced by their dielectric constants and geometry parameters.}, number={3}, journal={Majlesi Journal of Electrical Engineering}, publisher={OICC Press}, author={Zare, Seyed Mohammad and EbnAli, Majid and Shayesteh, Mohammad Reza and Heidari, Aliakbar Ebnali}, year={2024}, month={Feb.}, keywords={Band gap, Dispersion, Photonic Crystal, Band Structure} }
