Gaps in the spectrum of the Neumann Laplacian generated by a system of periodically distributed traps

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: The article deals with a convergence of the spectrum of the Neumann Laplacian in a periodic unbounded domain Omegavarepsilon depending on a small parameter varepsilon>0. The domain has the form Omegavarepsilon=mathbbRnsetminusSvarepsilon, where Svarepsilon is an varepsilonmathbbZn-periodic family of trap-like screens. We prove that for an arbitrarily large L the spectrum has just one gap in [0,L] when varepsilon small enough, moreover when varepsilono0 this gap converges to some interval whose edges can be controlled by a suitable choice of geometry of the screens. An application to the theory of 2D-photonic crystals is discussed.
