Description

Abstract We present a program for the calculation of the frequency band structure of an infinite photonic crystal, and of the transmission, reflection and absorption coefficients of light by a slab of this crystal. The crystal consists of a stack of identical slices parallel to a given surface; a slice may consist of a number of different components, each of which can be either a homogeneous plate or a multilayer of spherical particles of given periodicity parallel to the surface. ... Title of program: MULTEM Catalogue Id: ADIM_v1_0 Nature of problem Calculation of the complex band structure associated with a given surface of a photonic crystal, and of the transmission, reflection and absorption coefficients of light by a slab of the crystal parallel to the given surface. We note that the ordinary frequency band structure of the infinite crystal is contained within the complex band structure of any surface of the crystal.
