Photonic structures and metamaterials are in the focus of theoretical and experimental interdisciplinary studies, which span laser physics, condensed matter physics, nanotechnology, chemistry and information science. The important features of photonic bandgap structures under discussion are connected with �slow� light, which is one of the promising fundamental physical phenomena that can be explored in the design of various quantum optical storage devices. In particular, the effective reduction of the group velocity demonstrated in the associated optical waveguide resonators. Based on the representations of the ideal photonic structures, the nonideal systems of this class - polaritonic crystal, which is a set of spatially ordered microcavities containing ultracold atomic clusters, is considered. Moreover, the spatial distribution of cavities (microresonators) is translation invariant, and the atomic subsystem has randomly distributed defects: impurity atomic clusters (quantum dots) or a vacancies. Numerical modeling of dependence of the dispersion of polaritons in this imperfect lattice of associated microresonators on impurity concentration is completed. Using the virtual crystal approximation the analytical expressions for polaritonic frequencies, effective mass and group velocities, as a function of corresponding quantum dots and vacancies concentrations, is obtained. It turned out that even with a small number of vacancies in the lattice (one position for a thousand resonators) weight polaritons increases by three orders of magnitude. These results enable to extend the possibility of creating a new class of functional materials - polaritonic crystal systems.
