PHOTONIC CRYSTALS – INTRODUCTION, APPLICATIONS AND THEORY

Generally the term photonic crystal refers to two dimensional (2-D) and three
dimensional (3-D) structures. Using 2-D and 3-D photonic crystals it is possible to
control the propagation of light at arbitrary angles of incidence and not only the light
normally incident as is the case for conventional optical films. Further, using photonic
crystals, it is possible to achieve optical functionality not possible using conventional
optical materials. This book provides a complete overview about photonic crystals
including properties, applications, approaches and methods for the study.
