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.

... orthogonal to lower bands. This statement of the variational theorem explains the large splitting between these two bands. The first band has most of its energy in the dielectric regions, and has a low frequency; the second must have a ...
... orthogonal to the previous band. Some of its energy is thereby forced into the low-e regions. (The maxima in the displacement energy coincide with the white regions of H in figure 7.) This causes a sizable jump in frequency between the ...
... orthogonal dielectric columns, an inverse opal, and a stack of alternating two-dimensional crystals of rods and holes. Just as in two dimensions, we can localize light at a defect or at a surface, but with a three-dimensional crystal we ...
... orthogonal orientations . The main advantage of the woodpile , as compared to crystals that had been proposed earlier , is that the woodpile can be fabricated as a sequence of layers deposited and patterned by lithographic techniques ...
... orthogonal logs in the ✰ + ŷ [ 110 ] and î – ŷ [ 110 ] directions . In fact , the woodpile crystal , like Yablonovite , can also be understood as a distorted form of the diamond lattice ( with lower symmetry ) . If we imagine taking ...
