Abstract

A Monte Carlo method-based design guideline for 2-D amorphous photonic materials are presented. The parameters affecting band gap are analyzed numerically and experimentally for telecommunication wavelengths. Asymmetric nature of band gap is explained in analogy with solid-state electronics.
