title = "Transition from photonic crystals to dielectric metamaterials: A phase diagram and the order parameter",
abstract = "We introduce a concept of phase transitions between photonic crystals and all-dielectric metamaterials suggesting a phase diagram that places two classes of such artificial structures on a common parameter plane.1 We consider photonic crystals and all-dielectric metamaterials composed of the similar structural elements and arranged in the similar geometry of a two-dimensional (2D) square lattice of dielectric cylinders of large dielectric permittivity. Such structures can display negative magnetic permeability in the TE-polarization due to the Mie resonance that occurs below the lowest Bragg resonance.2 We define a point of transition from photonic crystals to all-dielectric metamaterials as a point when the lowest Mie resonance splits from the lowest Bragg resonance creating the lowest photonic gap. Based on the numerical results, we construct the phase diagram photonic crystals - all- dielectric metamaterials for the 2D square lattice of circular rods for the TE polarization. We have verified our theoretical concept experimentally by engineering a {"}metacrystal{"} composed of glass tubes filled with water forming a 2D square lattice with a variable lattice constant.",
