We present a theoretical research of the optical properties of the (3,12,12) hexagonal 2D Archimedean photonic crystals. The structures are made of GaAs dielectric rods in air. Our research is mainly focused on analyzing symmetry properties of the modes and the appearance of the uncoupled modes which strongly affects the propagation of the wave and the optical performances of the material.
