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.

... finite region, the modes are quantized into discrete frequencies, as described in the section Discrete vs. Continuous Frequency Ranges of chapter 2. Extended States Density of States Photonic Band Gap Photonic Band. frequency becomes ...
... finite extent in the third direction is treated in chapter 8. For certain values of the column spacing , this crystal can have a photonic band gap in the xy plane . Inside this gap , no extended states are permitted , and incident light ...
... finite height—structures that are periodic in two dimensions, but are not strictly homogeneous in the third direction. In that case, kz is not conserved, and we cannot ignore out-of-plane propagation vectors. In chapter 9, we will ...
... finite number of rods , then even the defect modes inside the gap are resonances , rather than truly localized modes . Each resonance has a nonzero leakage rate y into the surrounding medium . Because these defect modes decay ...
... finite - thickness " two - dimensional " rod and hole crystals analogous to those of chapter 5.7 The structure is shown in figure 10 along with its horizontal cross sections , which fall into two categories : rod layers , which are a ...
