An efficient method for band structure calculations in dielectric photonic crystals is presented. The method uses a finite element discretization coupled with a preconditioned subspace iteration algorithm. Numerical examples are presented which illustrate the behavior of the method.

A method for computing band structures for three-dimensional photonic crystals is described. The method combines a mixed finite element discretization on a uniform grid with a fast Fourier transform preconditioner and a preconditioned subspace iteration algorithm. Numerical examples illustrating the
Using the finite-difference time-domain method, based on the numerical simulation of oscillating dipole radiation, we analyze band structures in two-dimensional Kerr-nonlinear photonic crystals. This method is more thorough at calculating band structures in two-dimensional Kerr-nonlinear photonic cr
## Abstract With a linear relativistic method we calculated the band structure of gold. A comparison with the results of a RAPW calculation shows that the deviation is about 3%. The effort of computational time is for the linear method considerably smaller than for the RAPW method.
