Abstract

The light scattering by two-dimensional photonic crystals is studied within the framework of the rigorous theory of multiple scattering based on the scattering matrix technique. Using translational properties of the vector cylindrical harmonics, the problem is reduced to a system of linear equations.As a result, the angular dependences of the scattered light intensity are calculated for different samples with a photonic-crystal structure comprised of long circular cylinders. The effects of structure and the degree of ordering of the sample on the angular characteristics of the light scattering are analyzed.
