It is shown that photonic band gaps can be widened an order of magnitude more by using a Raman scheme of index enhancement, in comparison to previously considered upper level microwave scheme.EnglishBand gapsBose- Einstein condensatesOrder of magnitudesPhotonic band-gap materialsPhotonic bandsRaman schemesVortex latticesBose-Einstein condensationCrystal latticesEnergy gapOptical devicesPhotonic crystalsSteam condensersSuperconducting materialsVortex flowPhotonic band gapArticle10.1134/S1054660X090401971555-6611
