Wood anomalies in resonant photonic quasicrystals

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

A theory of light diffraction from a planar quasicrystalline lattice with resonant scatterers is presented. Rich structure, absent in the periodic case, is found in specular reflection spectra, and interpreted as a specific kind of Wood anomaly, characteristic of quasicrystals. The theory is applied to semiconductor quantum dots arranged in Penrose tiling.
