Analytical investigation of one-dimensional photonic crystals with a dielectric-superconducting pair defect

We have studied the dielectric-superconducting pair defect embedded into one-dimensional photonic crystals by an analytical method based on the Kronig–Penny model. The superconducting defect has been considered by using of two-fluid model whose permittivity depends on the frequency and superconductor parameters. We have showed that in contrast to the usual defect modes, superconducting defect modes are nearly invariant upon the change of defect size and with increasing defect sizes, the enhancement behavior is observed in the peak of electric field profiles. In addition, the physical parameters have less effect on the defect modes, which is placed under cutoff frequency of superconductor.
