A general approach to the analysis of optical properties of photonic crystals based on multiple-quantum-well structures is developed. The effect of the polarization state and a nonperpendicular incidence of the electromagnetic wave is taken into account by introduction of an effective excitonic susceptibility and an effective optical width of the quantum wells. This approach is applied to consideration of optical properties of structures with a pre-engineered break of the translational symmetry. It is shown, in particular, that a layer with different exciton frequency placed at the middle of an MQW structure leads to appearance of a resonance suppression of the reflection.
