Quantization of the electromagnetic field
• Quantize the free radiation field inside a photonic crystal(no real charge, no current).
• The radiation field can be composed of a vector potential and a scalar potential:
Φ∇−∂∂−=
t
AE
rr
ABrrr
×∇=
The radiation field is invariant under gaugetransformations. Since we do not have a real charge, wecan find a transformation to eliminate the scalar potential.

Chirality
• An object is called chiral, if its mirror image cannot be overlaid with the original via rotation.
• A chiral object and its mirror image are called enantiomorphs or enantiomers.
• Example: Your hands.

Chirality <–> Optical Activity
• The term optical activity derives from the interaction of chiral materials with polarized light:
An optically active material rotates the plane of polarization of a beam of plane polarized light in a counterclockwise or clockwise direction, depending on the handedness of the material.
• This property was first observed by Jean-BaptisteBiot in 1815.

Polarization stop bands
• Can we fabricate artificial structures, which allow for the propagation of one circular polarized component, but not for the other?
• Can we construct an optical diode, which allows one wavelength of light to propagate in forward but not in backward direction?
• Can we construct an optical isolator, which prevents backreflected light from entering a laser?
