One-dimensional photonic crystals with a sawtooth refractive index: another exactly solvable potential

Exact analytical results expressed in terms of Bessel functions for the bandgaps, reflectance and transmittance of one-dimensional photonic crystals with a sawtooth refractive index profile on the period are derived, to our knowledge for the first time. This extends the set of exactly solvable model...
