a periodic dielectric slab with a permittivity of 2 and 30% filling fraction.

The electric field shapes at the Gamma, X, and M-points are added at the sides, and clearly connected by red arrows with the
respective points in the dispersion curves. Red-white-blue color scheme shows the perpendicular amplitude of the
electric field. Green lines depict the nodal planes, where the amplitude of the electric field is always zero (for a monochromatic wave).
The black lines outline the dielectric structure.

Red-white-blue color scheme shows the amplitude of the electric field perpendicular to the screen, each mode plot corresponding to 2x2 unit cells. Green lines on it depict the nodal planes, where the amplitude of the electric field is always zero (for a monochromatic wave). The black lines outline the dielectric structure.
