Order N photonic band structures for metals and other dispersive materials
J. Arriaga, A. J. Ward, J. B. Pendry
We show, for the first time, how to calculate photonic band structures for metals and other dispersive systems using an efficient Order N scheme. The method is applied to two simpl…

Calculating photonic Green's functions using a non-orthogonal finite difference time domain method
A. J. Ward, J. B. Pendry
In this paper we shall propose a simple scheme for calculating Green's functions for photons propagating in complex structured dielectrics or other photonic systems. The method is…

The Theory of SNOM: A Novel Approach
A. J. Ward, J. B. Pendry
In this paper we consider the application of electromagnetic theory to the analysis of the Scanning Near-field Optical Microscope (SNOM) in order to predict experimentally observab…
