  • Abstract
    A novel self-consistent approach to spontaneous emission of excited atoms placed in a viscinity of photonic crystals is elaborated. It is based on the leaky modes formalism first developed in quantum electrodynamics of imperfect cavities. A new way of estimating the density of states within and outside the (nonideal) photonic crystals is presented.
