Abstract

The transmission properties of one-dimensional (1D) photonic crystals containing two kinds of single-negative (ENG and MNG) material are investigated theoretically. A type of photonic gap with zero effective phases (zero-φeff) and the effects of absorption on the properties of the zero-φeff gap were shown. Specifically, it is demonstrated that strong absorption creates photon states inside the gap and this makes the band gap to be of zero width.
