Spatio-temporal wave propagation in photonic crystals: a Wannier-function analysis

arXiv:physics/0409016

Abstract

A general analysis of undistorted propagation of localized wavepackets in photonic crystals based on a Wannier-function expansion technique is presented. Different kinds of propagating and stationary spatio-temporal localized waves are found from an asymptotic analysis of the Wannier function envelope equation.
