Annotation

Typical cases of lateral shift and deformation of the profile of two-dimensional light beams reflected from the surface of a one-dimensional photonic crystal are considered. We use harmonic modulation of the spatial dependence of dielectric permeability of a crystal, which permits one to study reflectance profiles analytically. The results of numerical calculations that were performed are presented for the cases when the angular spectrum of the incident beam is split.
