Monte Carlo modelling of imperfections in two-dimensional photonic crystals
In this paper we describe a Monte Carlo simulation of imperfections in photonic crystals, a new class of materials with optical properties that offer promise in a range of potential applications in the areas of information and communications technology. We describe the relevant physical and structural properties of these materials and outline the derivation of a theoretical model. We then present a Monte Carlo investigation of the tolerance of these materials to fabrication defects. (C) 2003 IMACS. Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
