Abstract
A physico-mathematical model describing one-dimensional photonic crystals and anisotropic mesoporous silicon-based microresonators is presented. The spectral characteristics of structures under study have been calculated using the e.m. field scalarization method in combination with the finite-difference method. The reflectance spectra for two orthogonal incident-plane wave polarizations are depicted.
KEY WORDS:microresonator, photoluminescence, porous silicon
