Abstract :
A hybrid generalised scattering matrix (GSM) finite element method (FEM) formulation is proposed for modelling the effect of the presence of defects in photonic crystals. It is employed to analyse uniform slab and periodic defects in a triangular-lattice structure consisting of dielectric cylinders
