Abstract :
Periodic screens are well known for their filtering capabilities in frequency selective surface applications. Interest has been growing in the use of periodic structures for photonic bandgap (PBG) applications. PBG structures are now finding use in many areas, such as integrated antenna circuits. We explore the electromagnetic characteristics of multiple periodic screens as they relate to PBGs.
