However, far away from the defect the structure should behave approximately as before.
Since the structure is no longer periodic, the modes of the “defective” Photonic Crystal are not Bloch states.
Therefore, we still can use knowledge from bandstructurecalculations whether a mode is extended or evanescent.

The periodic structures on both side of the defect act as frequency dependent mirrors.
Extended modes: low reflectivity
Evanescent modes: high reflectivity
Defects may permit localized modes to exist, if the modes have frequencies inside the photonic band gap.

A localized defect mode must decay exponentially once it enters the Photonic Crystal.
Since the distance between the two “mirrors” is on the order of the wavelength of light, the modes are quantized.
(Remember the quantum-mechanical problem of a particle in a box.)

The air/dielectric defect leads to a transmission peak (T=1 !) in the middle of the photonic band gap.
The mode associated with the air/dielectric defect is localizedat the site of the defect:
• huge intensity enhancement at the position of the defect (I0 = 1 vs. IDefect≈ 65000)
• exponetial decay of the intensity inside the Photonic Crystal

Photons in defect mode bounce Q-times between both “mirrors” before leaving the structure.
Without proof:
Q ∝ (energy stored in mode)/(energy loss per cycle)

Defects play an important role in Photonic-Crystal applications since they can be used as functional elements.
In analogy: Pure Si is “boring”. By intentional doping (intoducing defects) we can fabricate functional semiconductor elements.
Defects in Photonic-Crystal can be used as …
… spectral filters (band pass filter).
… cavities for ultra small lasers.
… waveguides (line defects 2D and 3D Photonic Crystals).
… switches (if combined with nonlinear materials).

•There are no band gaps for propagation in z-direction.
•Even for in plane propagation, we require a large aspectratio (height/period) in order to meet experimental constraints (beam diameter).
•Scattering losses in the 3rd dimension are responsible forlow transmittance in experiments with 2D PhotonicCrystals.
Some general problems with 2D Photonic Crystals:
•index guiding for the 3rd dimension=> Photonic Crystal Slabs
Strategies to overcome these problems:
