Photonic Band Structures

Pendry, J.B.·1994·Journal of Modern Optics

Abstract

Building complex materials with structures on a scale comparable to the wavelength of light offers possibilities for radically changing the way light moves around such materials, in the same way that we engineer atomic structure to vary electronic properties of semiconductors. In this paper we describe in detail how to make numerical calculations of the dispersion relations (the band structure) of these complex objects, and how to calculate transmission through, and reflection from them. Finally these methodologies are applied to a colloidal dispersion of metallic particles at 12% volume filling fraction to reproduce the well known characteristics of strong optical absorption.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
