Abstract

The gain factor for the light propagating in one dimension (1D) photonic band-gap (PBG) structure having active layers with was calculated using the transfer matrix formalism. The frequency dependencies of the reflection and transmission coefficients, and threshold conditions of 1D photonic crystal with finite length are presented. The structure containing thin metal layers is considered also. Possible mechanisms of gain enhancement were discussed.
