Abstract

Electromagnetic scattering from two-dimensional photonic crystals with two-dimensionally periodic defects is analyzed using a model of multilayered periodic arrays of parallel circular cylinders. The reflectance of the photonic crystals of finite thickness, which are free-standing or embedded in a dielectric slab, is obtained in terms of the lattice-sums, the T-matrix of a circular cylinder, and the generalized reflection matrix for a layered system. Numerical examples demonstrate that the refection and transmission bands of the crystals are reformed by introducing the periodic defects and their band natures are very sensitive to the polarization of excitation and the relative position of the defect element within a unit cell.
