Characterizing Photonic band gap materials

[momo256]

TE, usually, used when the electric field is parallel to the axes of rods. But thats only just a convention. I use TM for the same thing in my papers.

For the case of the microstrip antenna, you will get the gain you want
On the other hand you can not obtain (simply) the bandstructure of a triangular lattice by using a rectangular unit cell. Because you will loose the rotational symmetry of the triangular lattice. But still it is possible.

Thanks for these informations about TE/TM. But what about p and s polarizations?

Best regards

Thank you! I want to simulate the negative refractive PC

how to use translight to cumpute in metl!

 

[ilfisico]

I have to simulate a direct opal <111> plane made by PS spheres of 233nm and RI of 1.59.

The real thickness is 10 layers, i don't know how to control the thinckess with translight?

 

[krustik]

Could someone help me on how to model defect using template in translight?
