ABSTRACT Photonic bandgap (PBG) and its defect mode are two representative characteristics of plasma photonic crystals (PPC), which make them have important industrial applications in photonic crystal waveguides, filters, antennas, and other devices. In this paper, we apply the symplectic multi-resolution time-domain (S-MRTD) scheme to analyze these two properties. Firstly, the characteristics of PBG are analyzed. Secondly, the characteristics of defect mode in the case of a single defect layer and multi-defect layers are adequately studied. Finally, two types of ternary PPC are further simulated. Numerical simulations demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed scheme, a desirable PBG and its defect mode can be obtained by altering the corresponding plasma parameters and dielectric parameters.
