- The MIT Photonic-Bands (MPB) package is a program for computing
- the band structures (dispersion relations) and electromagnetic modes of
- periodic dielectric structures, on both serial and parallel computers. It was
- developed by Steven G. Johnson at MIT in the Joannopoulos Ab Initio Physics
- group.
- This program computes definite-frequency eigenstates of Maxwell's
- equations in periodic dielectric structures for arbitrary wavevectors, using
- fully-vectorial and three-dimensional methods. It is especially
- designed for the study of photonic crystals (a.k.a. photonic
- band-gap materials), but is also applicable to many other problems
- in optics, such as waveguides and resonator systems.
- (For example, it can solve for the modes of waveguides with arbitrary
- cross-sections.)
