Localization and Amplification of the Electromagnetic Field in a Globular Photonic Crystal

Аннотация

Using the wave equation, the electromagnetic field distribution is calculated in a globular photonic crystal on the basis of artificial opal in the [111] direction. The electromagnetic field is found to be localized at the edge of the photonic band gap in the first surface pore of the sample. The effect of pumping on a sample is estimated as well. The results open up prospects for the application of artificial opals to solve photon and gravitational conversion problems.
