Photonic crystal to photonic crystal surface modes: narrow-bandpass filters

The properties of surface modes present in the junction of two different one-dimensional photonic crystals placed in series are studied to assess the possibility of applying them in the design of narrow-bandpass filters. To design bandpass filters that are similar in many respects to multiple-cavity...

Description
Summary:The properties of surface modes present in the junction of two different one-dimensional photonic crystals placed in series are studied to assess the possibility of applying them in the design of narrow-bandpass filters. To design bandpass filters that are similar in many respects to multiple-cavity Fabry-Perot filters, we also consider the coupling conditions for these surface modes for multiple photonic crystals placed in series to form a multiple-junction system.
