摘要
Scaling laws for photonic bandgaps in photonic crystal fibres are described. Although only strictly valid for small refractive index contrast, they successfully identify corresponding features in structures with large index contrast. Furthermore, deviations from the scaling laws distinguish features that are vector phenomena unique to electromagnetic waves from those that would be expected for generic scalar waves.
