Abstract

The negative refractions are discussed in detail to demonstrate two different two-dimensional photonic crystal structures that undergo negative refractions associated with the backward-wave and forward-wave phenomenon, respectively. The presentation of the left-handed property of effective negative index photonic crystal is followed by a discussion of a backward flowing phase and causality. The forward-wave negative refraction occurs in photonic crystals as a result of anisotropy. This paper is based on the theoretical analysis and is illustrated with the results of finite element method simulations.
