•The lateral shift of the light transmitted through a 1D superconductor–dielectric photonic crystal is investigated.•The lateral shift is very sensitive to the temperature below the critical temperature of the superconducting layers.•Variation of the temperature allows to enhance the lateral shift for TE- and TM-polarized light.•The maximal lateral shifts are obtained for the case of in-plane optical anisotropy of the superconducting layers.•The positions of the transmittivity and lateral shift maxima do not change with temperature.
We investigate the lateral shift of the light transmitted through the ternary one-dimensional photonic crystal composed of two dielectric and one superconducting sublayers. The variations of the transmittivity spectra and the lateral shift of the light with the temperature have been investigated for both TE- and TM-polarized oblique incident light.
