Analysis, Optimization, And Characterization Of Magnetic Photonic Crystal Structures And Thin-Film Material Layers, Mikhail Vasiliev, Kamal Alameh, Mohammad Nur-E-Alam

Mikhail Vasiliev

The development of magnetic photonic crystals (MPC) has been a rapidly evolving research area since the late 1990s. Magneto-optic (MO) materials and the techniques for their characterization have also continually undergone functional and property-related improvements. MPC optimization is a feature-rich Windows software application designed to enable researchers to analyze the optical and magneto-optical spectral properties of multilayers containing gyrotropic constituents. We report on a set of computational algorithms which aim to optimize the design and the optical or magneto-optical spectral analysis of 1D MPC, together with a Windows software implementation. Relevant material property datasets (e.g., the spectral dispersion data for …
