摘要
Electric field patterns in finite two-dimensional wire photonics lattices are investigated by means of electromagnetic simulations. These studies reveal a strong analogy with the envelope wavefunction approach extensively used for semiconductor superlattices. Several propagating eigenmodes in the pass-band of the periodic structure as well as evanescent modes in the stop-bands are clearly identified. They are interpreted on the basis of the matching of the wavelength of electromagnetic field to the lattice dimensions with an envelope wavefunction resulting of a Fabry-Perot effect in the cavity formed by the periodic structure. In terms of transmission coefficient, the calculated frequency dependence are in agreement with those measured in finite metallic rod arrays between 50 and 110 GHz. (C) 1997 Academic Press Limited.
