Photonic Bandgap Closure and Metamaterial Behavior in 1D Periodic Chains of High-Index Nanobricks

It has been shown that the photonic bandgap of one-dimensional (1D) dielectric periodic thin films can vanish at the first Bragg condition for TM modes. Here, we address the case of 1D photonic crystal slabs formed by a chain of high-index dielectric particles with transversal confinement and show t...
