Addressable plasma photonic crystals

Photonic crystals that comprise arrays of microplasmas can act as recon g- urable lters in the microwave and THz spectral regions. When compared to conventional photonic crystals fabricated in a solid, plasma photonic crystals are recon gurable at electronic speeds which, in turn, allows for the transmis- sion characteristics to be altered rapidly. This thesis will describe the theory and characteristics of photonic crystals, and the design and performance of photonic crystals based on arrays of microplasma jets will be discussed.
