Periodic photonic structures have attracted much interest due to their versatility for controlling light propagation. The dispersion of photon modes in photonic lattices exhibits an energy band structure analo-gous to the electronic one in crystals. An imp ...
Recent advances in designing time-reversal-invariant photonic topological insulators have been extended down to the deep subwavelength scale, by employing synthetic photonic matter made of dense periodic arrangements of subwavelength resonant scatterers. I ...
We theoretically investigated the symmetry properties of the modes in two-dimensional square lattice photonic crystals in order to study phenomena that would enable new frontiers in the applications of photonic crystals. Using group theory, symmetry analys ...
The theories used up to now to model theoretically and numerically nanostructures, and more specifically semiconductor heterostructures, do not allow to include efficiently at the envelope function level, in a k · p approach, the effects imposed by a possi ...
