The out-of-plane propagation characteristics of an infinitely extended 12-fold photonic quasi-crystal structure is modeled using the FDTD technique. The quasi-crystal pattern is designed using the dual beam multiple exposure holographic lithography system previously reported. Simulations indicate that two types of mode families are possible; bandgap guided and; index guided. Results are presented showing mode profiles; effective index versus propagation constant and wavelength plots; and modal attenuation due to power leakage. Potential applications include a new novel micro-structured optical fiber. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
