Green's functions for Maxwell's equations: application to spontaneous emission
We present a new formalism for calculating the Green's function for Maxwell's equations. As our aim is to apply our formalism to light scattering at surfaces of arbitrary materials, we derive the Green's funct...

2D Photonic Band Gap Structures in Fibre Form
A structure with a refractive index that varies periodically in three dimensions can fail to transmit light of certain “forbidden” frequencies, despite being non-absorbing. This is because Bragg diffraction, c...

Bound Modes of Two-Dimensional Photonic Crystal Waveguides
It is now widely recognised that a volume of dielectric material with an appropriately designed periodic microstructure — a photonic crystal — will support a full three-dimensional photonic band gap (PBG) [1]. Ov...

Numerical method for calculating spontaneous emission rate near a surface using Green’s functions
We present a novel computational approach for calculating spontaneous emission in the presence of a surface of a material slab. The only requirement on the material is that it should have periodicity parallel ...

The Activity of IL-8 in Combination with Gmcsf and TNFα
The effect of cytokines on phagocytes can be either direct e.g. increasing cell adhesion molecule (CD1 lb) expression, or indirect e.g. enhancing or ‘priming’ an agonist-stimulated activity. rh-IL-8 (Sandoz) (...

The Effect of 5-Lipoxygenase Inhibitors on the Activity of IL-8
The cytokine interleukin-8 (IL-8) has direct effects on neutrophils such as increasing the expression of CD1lb adhesion molecules or chemotactic peptide receptors and also enhances agonist-mediated responses s...

Finite element modelling of two-phase heat and fluid flow in deforming porous media
This paper details a finite element model which describes the flow of two-phase fluid and heat within a deforming porous medium. The coupled governing equations are derived in terms of displacements, pore pres...
