The reported configuration overcomes strong beam divergence and complex beam generation due to the self-collimation ability of the low symmetric primitive photonic crystal (PhC) cells. Analytical calculations of equi-frequency contours, photonic band structures, and group velocity dispersions are performed by solving Maxwell's equations and using the plane wave expansion method. Besides, finite-difference time-domain analyses are also conducted. The designed superprism induces large refracted angle variation for different frequencies when the incident angle is fixed: 4% change of incident frequencies results in approximately 40° deflected angle difference with a maximum 68.9° deflection angle inside the PhC. Meanwhile, for a fixed incident wavelength, a large output variation occurs if the incident angle is altered. Microwave experimental results are found to be in good agreement with the numerical analyses.EnglishEnhanced superprism effect in symmetry reduced photonic crystalsArticle10.1063/1.5032197
