We studied the refractive behavior of two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystals consisting of rods with a rectangular cross section. All crystals treated in this work are assumed to have the same lattice constant. By modifying only the rod's side ratio, we found that negative or positive anisotropic refractive behavior or a photonic band gap can be observed. This behavior is confirmed by using a rigorous electromagnetic theory, namely, the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. By taking advantage of this behavior, we furthermore combined crystals with different properties, and showed that the smooth conjunction produced by the same lattice constant allows each part of the combined crystal to keep its refractive property as if each part were treated individually.
