Light propagation control by finite-size effects in photonic crystals

Optics 2009-11-06 v1 Computational Physics

Abstract

We exhibit the strong influence on light propagation of the finite size in photonic band-gap material. We show that light emission can be controlled by the symmetry group of the boundary of the finite device. These results lead simply to important practical applications.
