X Abstract

Three-dimensionally periodic dielectric structures; photonic crystals; possessing a forbidden gap for electromagnetic wave propagation; a photonic band gap; are now known. If the perfect 3D periodicity is broken by a local defect; local electromagnetic modes can occur within the forbidden band gap. Addition of extra dielectric material locally; inside the photonic crystal; produces ââdonorââ modes. Conversely; local removal of dielectric material from the crystal produces ââacceptorââ modes. It is now possible to make high- Q electromagnetic cavities of â¼1 cubic wavelength; for short wavelengths at which metallic cavities are useless. These new dielectric cavities can cover the range from mm waves to UV wavelengths.

RIS BibTeX
CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
