| Abstract: | The universal condition for the formation of omnidirectional band gaps (OBG) in photonic crystal (PC) was derived with consideration
of permeability of the materials. And it was found that there are four kinds of PCs: one of them has no OBG, and one always
possesses OBG. For the other two kinds of PCs, there are OBG for only TM or TE waves respectively. Moreover, in all PCs, the
OBG can be broadened by decreasing the refractive index of the ambient medium or/and increasing the contrast between the wave
impedances of the component materials of the PC.
