Abstract

Much interest has been taken in photonic crystals (PCs) [1] in which the refractive index n changes periodically. A photonic band gap (PBG) is formed in the crystals, and the propagation of electromagnetic waves is prohibited for all wavevectors. Various important scientific and engineering applications such as control of spontaneous emission, a zero-threshold laser, very sharp bending of light, and so on, are expected by utilizing the PBG and the artificially introduced defect states and/or light emitters.
