Negative refraction and left-handed behavior in two-dimensional photonic crystals
We systematically examine the conditions of obtaining left-handed (LH) behavior in photonic crystals. Detailed studies of the phase and group velocities as well as the phase ${n}_{p}$ and group ${n}_{g}$ refractive indices are given. The existence of negative refraction does not guarantee the existence of negative index of refraction and …
