PHOTONIC DIRAC CONES REALIZED BY ACCIDENTAL DEGENERACY ON THE BRILLOUIN-ZONE BOUNDARY
Abstract
The condition for the formation of Dirac cones at arbitrary points in the Brillouin zone by the accidental degeneracy of two photonic bands was examined by the degenerate perturbation theory and group theory based on the spatial symmetry of two modes. The analysis was applied to a two-dimensional square-lattice photonic crystal with C4v symmetry and the dispersion relation in the vicinity of the M point was examined. Exact agreement between the analytical and numerical calculation was obtained.
