Photonic Crystals: Molding the Flow of Light - Second EditionSince it was first published in 1995, Photonic Crystals has remained the definitive text for both undergraduates and researchers on photonic band-gap materials and their use in controlling the propagation of light. This newly expanded and revised edition covers the latest developments in the field, providing the most up-to-date, concise, and comprehensive book available on these novel materials and their applications.

... radius. Consequently, configurations of material that differ only in their overall spatial scale nevertheless have very different physical properties. For photonic crystals, there is no fundamental constant with the dimensions of length ...
... radius r and dielectric constant ε . The material is homogeneous along the z direction ( we imagine the cylinders are very tall ) , and periodic along x and y with lattice constant a . The left inset shows the square lattice from above ...
... radius r/a = 0.2, is plotted in figure 2. Both the TE and the TM band structures are shown. (As described in the section The Size of the Band Gap of chapter 4, the frequency is expressed as a dimensionless ratio La/27c.) The horizontal ...
... radius r and dielectric constant e =1. The left inset shows a view of the triangular lattice from above, with the unit cell framed in red. It has lattice constant a. to the appearance of a node in the higher-frequency mode. This, in ...
