Based on the idea of multiple photonic bandgap (PBG) overlapping for a one-dimensional photonic crystal heterostructure, a novel hybrid quasiperiodic heterostructure is proposed to enlarge the omnidirectional photonic bandgap (OPBG). The heterostructure is formed by combining Fibonacci and Thue-Morse quasiperiodic structure. The results show that the OPBG of the heterostructure is enlarged obviously, which increases about three times compared with that of Fibonacci quasiperiodic structure, and twelve times compared with that of Thue-Morse quasiperiodic structure. The influences of structural parameters, such as period number and generation number, on PBGs of Fibonacci and Thue-Morse quasiperiodic structure are studied respectively. The results show that the parameters have little effects on PBG widths of the two quasiperiodic structures. The influences of the refractive indexes and thickness values of the high and low refractive index materials on OPBG of the heterostructure are also investigated. The results show that the OPBG of the heterostructure can be further broadened by increasing the refractive index ratios and thickness values of the high and low refractive index materials. The reason why the quasiperiodic structure can easily realize the multiple band gap overlapping is analyzed by comparing the bandgap properties of periodic structure. The number of PBGs of the quasiperiodic structure in the same wavelength range is more than that of the periodic structure. Moreover, with the increase of generation number of the quasiperiodic structure, due to the occurrence of PBG split, the number of PBGs increases obviously, and each PBG width is less than that of the periodic structure. Owing to this kind of PBG characteristic of the quasiperiodic structure, the heterostructure formed by cascading the two quasiperiodic structures is more prone to realizing the multiple PBG overlapping than other heterostructures, thus more easily achieving the expansion of OPBG. These results lay the design foundation for the compensation and broadening of the more complex bandgap structure.
