چکیده
This paper studies the surface modes at the interface of finite size Electromagnetic Band Gap (EBG) woodpile structures. The impact of different types of woodpile terminations on the properties of these surface modes is analyzed. For all the studied terminations there exist surface modes which must be taken into account when designing components based on this EBG structure.

Axially Symmetric Transient Electromag- Netic Fields in a Radially Inhomogeneous Bi- Conical Transmission Line
In the present paper a novel mathematical model of physical processes of transient electromagnetic waves excitation and propagation in a biconical transmission line with radially inhomogeneous magneto-dielectric filling is proposed. The model is based on time domain mode expansions over spherical waves. The basis functions of the mode expansions are calculated analytically. The mode expansion c...
متن کاملMulticolor patterning using holographic woodpile photonic crystals at visible wavelengths.
High-quality woodpile structures with photonic band gaps in the visible wavelength range were fabricated using a single prism holographic lithography technique. Woodpile structures were prepared to have a rod diameter of 160 nm, a lateral periodicity of 240 nm, and an axial periodicity of 300 nm, which is the smallest feature size for three-dimensional nanopatterned structures. A multicolor pat...

1. Abstract: Phononic band gap crystals, which could prohibit the propagations of elastic waves in certain frequency, are consisted of periodically distributed inclusions embedded in a matrix with high contrast in mechanical properties. In recent years, systematic design of phononic band gap crystals has attracted increasing attention due to their wide applications such as sound insulation, wav...
متن کاملTheoretical study of photonic band gaps in woodpile crystals.
We investigate numerically the existence of photonic band gaps in woodpile crystals. We present a numerical method specifically developed to solve Maxwell's equations in such photonic structures. It is based upon a rigorous mathematical formulation and leads to a considerable improvement of the convergence speed as compared to other existing numerical methods. We tested our method by comparing ...
متن کاملExperimental observation of locally-resonant and Bragg band gaps for surface guided waves in a phononic crystal of pillars
We report on the experimental study of the propagation of surface guided waves in a periodic arrangement of pillars on a semi-infinite medium. Samples composed of nickel pillars grown on a lithium niobate substrate were prepared and wide bandwidth transducers were used for the electrical generation of surface elastic waves. We identify a complete band gap for surface guided waves appearing at f...
