Designer disordered complex media : hyperuniform photonic and phononic band gap materials

In this thesis we investigate designer disordered complex media for photonics and phononics applications. Initially we focus on the photonic properties and we analyse hyperuniform disordered structures (HUDS) using numerical simulations. Photonic HUDS are a new class of photonic solids, which displa...
