Dielectric photonic band gap structures have many promising applications for optical devices, microwave generation, and laser acceleration. We present the results of our recent work on analytical calculations of 2D photonic band gap structures with kz=0. We compare the analytical results with computer simulation results from MIT Photonic Band Gap Structure Simulator (PBGSS) code. We also discuss the convergence of the computer simulation results to the analytical results.
