Abstract

We propose a design of narrow-band multi-channel optical filter using multiple stacks of unit cell consisting of trilayer of Doubly positive medium (DPS)–Doubly negative medium (DNG)–Epsilon negative medium (ENG). Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) technique is used to numerically simulate the effect of optical thickness of DPS, DNG and ENG media on tunability of the transmission spectrum of such a medium. We also demonstrate the control on the number of channels at different frequencies that can be transmitted through such medium.
