Exploring Photonic Crystals: Band Structure and Topological Interface States

The physical mechanisms supporting the existence of topological interface modes in photonic structures, formed with the concatenation of two finite, <i>N</i>-period, one-dimensional photonic crystals, are investigated. It is shown that these mechanisms originate from a specific configura...
