Graphene based 1D photonic crystals bands via the Fourier Modal Method
Résumé
The Fourier Modal Method (FMM) is used to obtain the band structure of a 1D graphene based photonic crystal. The structure consists of graphene layers periodically inlayed in a homogeneous dielectric medium. In the model, the graphene sheet is considered as layer with atomic thickness. Under these conditions, we show that it is possible to use the FMM in order to obtain a polynomial eigenvalue problem allowing the computation of the band structure.
