研究目的
To validate the cold-plasma model for describing the dispersion relation of plasma and plasma-dielectric photonic multilayer structures using a one-dimensional Particle-in-Cell simulation and to analyze the results in a band diagram representation.
研究成果
The cold-plasma model is well justified for describing the dispersion relation of both homogeneous plasma slabs and plasma-dielectric photonic crystals. The study provides a scaling invariant interpretation of the results, which can be readily applied to multiple dimensions, although the one-dimensional nature of the simulation limits the analysis of complete bandgaps and omnidirectional reflection.
研究不足
The simulation is restricted to one dimension, which limits the analysis of directionality of the bandgap and the consideration of oblique incidence. Additionally, the formation of plasma boundary sheaths, which may alter the results, is not considered.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
A one-dimensional PIC code is employed to study the interaction of electromagnetic waves with plasma-dielectric structures on a kinetic basis. The code includes a one-dimensional full-wave description of the perpendicular electromagnetic fields using the finite-difference time-domain method with absorbing boundary conditions.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The study investigates two different configurations: a homogeneous plasma slab and a plasma-dielectric photonic crystal with a lattice constant a = 3.36 mm and N = 100 plasma slabs separated by dielectric.

3. List of Experimental Equipment and Materials: The simulation uses a plasma operated at a pressure p = 1 Pa in argon gas at a temperature T = 300 K, initialized with an electron temperature of Te = 3 eV and a homogeneous plasma density n0 = 1013 cm?
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The system response is evaluated for a duration tmax = 2.25 ns after exciting a short modulated pulse in the center of the configuration. The spatio-temporal evolution of the electric field is analyzed in the two-dimensional frequency domain using the fast Fourier transform method.
