Abstract: In this paper we report characteristics of a 1D metallodielectric photonic crystal with a two defect rod. Simulations of the field propagation for the corresponding Transverse Electric (TE) modes were carried out using Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) technique on Maxwell’s Equation. The results show that for certain chosen parameters of the transmittance varies if the refractive index of the defect rod is changed and that approximate linier changes for an refractive index range of 1.3 – 1.5 with a slight increase for a second defect change and a relatively steep decrease for a first defect change. A second defect index change can be used as the first defect sensitivity control The characteristics change due to variation of the defect rod radius is also considered for sensor design optimization.
