Analytic Expressions for Electromagnetic Field Envelopes in a 1D Photonic Crystal
نویسنده
چکیده
The subject of this paper is the derivation of expressions describing envelopes of electromagnetic fields inside a 1D photonic crystal. The presented approach is based on an effective resonator model, which treats each layer of the photonic crystal as a resonant cavity. The model is analytic and allows one to derive parameters characterizing the photonic crystal and express electric and magnetic fields as their function. It is general enough to take into account defects of the crystal or even be used for an aperiodic structure. In the end of the paper, a few results are provided for the case of a source of radiation inside a photonic crystal along with a short discussion.

Analytical Investigation of TM Surface Waves in 1D Photonic Crystals Capped by a Self-Focusing Left-Handed Slab
In this paper, the localized TM surface waves of a nonlinear self-focusingleft-handed slab sandwiched between a uniform medium and a one-dimensionalphotonic crystal (1D PC) is analytically investigated. Our method is based on the firstintegral of the nonlinear Maxwell's equations. For the TM surface waves, the presenceof two electric field components makes the analysis difficult. Therefore, we ...
متن کاملInvestigation and Comparison of Light Propagation in Two Graded Photonic Crystal Structures
In this paper, we study two different Graded Index (GRIN) photonic crystal (PC) structures which are named as structure type I and type II. The PC structures are made of the square rod in an air background. To design a GRIN PC structure the lattice constant has been altered in the direction transverse to propagation. We investigated focusing effect and waveguiding behavior of electr...
متن کاملSurface EM waves on 1D Photonic Crystals
Photonic crystals are artificial low-loss dielectric structures with periodic modulation of refractive index, which have attracted considerable attention in the last two decades. Due to Bragg reflection, electromagnetic (optical) waves cannot propagate through such structures in certain directions, at certain frequencies. Hence, photonic crystals can control the propagation of electromagnetic w...

Photonic band-gap (PBG) crystals offer new dimensions of freedom in controlling propagation of electromagnetic waves. The existence of stop-bands in the transmission characteristic of these crystals makes them a suitable element for the realization of many useful microwave and optical subsystems. In this paper, we calculate the propagation constant of a one-dimensional (1-D) photonic crystal by...
