▎ 摘  要

The optical properties of a graphene based annular photonic crystal (APC) are theoretically investigated. The proposed structure is a hollow core cylindrical shell consists of the alternate dielectric layer and graphene monolayer immersed in free space. In order to study the photonic band structures of the APC, we obtained the optical spectra of the graphene based APC by employing the transfer matrix method in the cylindrical waves for both TE and TM polarizations. In this work we study the effect of different geometrical and optical parameters of the structure on the low loss high reflectance graphene induced band gap. It is found that the graphene induced band gap which appeared in the frequency below 10 THz is polarization independent and remains almost invariant with the change in the period number, the radius of the inner core region and the refractive indices of the inner core region and the surrounding medium. However, its width increases by increasing the azimuthal mode number and the chemical potential of the graphene monolayers and decreases by increasing the refractive index and the thickness of the dielectric layers.
