  11. Photonic Band Structure

  12. ArtificialStructures and their Properties • 1. Photonic Crystals: • Man-made dielectric periodic structures. According to Bloch’s theorem, any eigenmode of the wave equation propagating in this kind of medium must satisfy: • Usually the frequency spectrum of a photonic crystal has the “band structure”, that is, there are “pass bands” (which correspond to the situation that the eigenmode equation has the “real k solution”) and “stop bands” (also called forbidden bands or band gaps, in which the eigenmode equation has no “real k solution”).

  13. The complex-k mode is a kind of evanescent wave (or the so called “near field”), which cannotsurvive in an infinitely extended photonic crystalregion (ruled out by the boundary conditions at +∞ and -∞). • However, near a surface (interface) or a defect (for example, a cylinder or a sphere with a different dielectric constant or radius), the evanescent wave can exist (the surface mode or the defect mode). • The EM waves do not propagate along the direction that the wave amplitude decays. Using this property one can control the propagation of the light. Examples: photonic insulators (omni-directional reflectors, filters), waveguides, resonance cavity, fibers, spontaneous emission inhibition, etc. • Even a pass band is useful, since it provides a different dispersion relation (the w-k relation) . We can design some “effective media”, usually they are anisotropic media. We can even use them to design novel lenses and wave plates.

  14. Electromagnetic Waves • Assuming that J = ρ = 0 (charge free and current free) in the system, then Faraday’s Law + Ampere’s Law lead to the wave equations for the E-field and H-field. • In a two-dimensional system, the permittivity (the dielectric constant ε) and the permeability (μ) become z-independent functions. • If k_z = 0 , then we have E-polarized wave (nonzero E_z, H_x, H_y) and the H-polarized wave (nonzero H_z, E_x, E_y). These two kinds of waves are decoupled. • For monochromatic EM waves with a time factor exp(-iwt), we have D proportional to (curl H), and B proportional to (curl E), thus the two divergence equations div D=0 and div B=0 are redundant.

  15. E-polarized wave H-polarized wave E- and H-polarized EM Waves

  16. 2. Phononic/Sonic (or Acoustic) Crystals: • Man-made elastic periodic structures. In them both the mass density and the elastic constants (Lam’e coefficients) are periodic functions of position. • All the effects (except the quantum effects) discussed before (i.e., the band structures, the band gaps, the evanescent waves, the different dispersion relations) can happen here. In addition, there aremorematerial parameters (both the mass density and the elastic constants can be varied). • The main research interests include the “sound barriers” , “noise filters”, and “vibration attenuators”. There are also some researches on “acoustic lens” and “negativerefraction”.

  17. Elastic Waves • Pressure field & Shear Force • Longitudinal & Transverse waves

  18. Two-Dimensional Wave Crystal Acoustic Wave and SH (shear) Wave • In an ideal (composite) fluid, shear force = 0, thus only thelongitudinal wave(i.e., the pressure wave)can propagate inside. • In a 2D system, the mass density and Lam’e constants are z-independent functions. If the wave propagation direction k has zero component along the z axis (i.e., k_z=0), then u_xy (i.e., the component lying on the xy plane ) and u_z (the component that parallel to the z axis) are decoupled.

  38. Acoustic Band Gap formation • Soft material (small ρc^2)  Soft spring  Elastic potential energy • Heavy material (largeρ)  Lead sphere  Kinetic energy • Soft-light material (region I)—Hard-heavy material (region II) system  Phonon (2 atoms per primitive basis)  A gap appears between the 1st and the 2nd bands, just like the gap between the “phonon branch” and “optical branch” • Separation of these two kinds of energy  Large gap • Region I should be disconnected (hard to move), and region II should be connected (easy to move)

  40. A singular point is a vortex if and only if it is an isolated zero of Φ. The vorticity is nonzero. A singular point is a saddle point if it is an isolated zero of Q , an isolated point at which the phases of Q and Φdiffer by odd multiples of π/2 or a combination of the previous two situations. The vorticity is zero. Application (II) Energy Flow Vortices in Wave Crystals See C. F. Chien and R. V. Waterhouse J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 101,705 (1996)
