Abstract
This research explores localized electric fields in two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystals, focusing on higher-order multipoles. Novel formulas are developed to accurately describe and analyze these complex electromagnetic modes. By considering various crystal element arrangements, we investigate the formation and interactions of electric, magnetic, and toroidal moments. We examine the effects of symmetry on the localized electromagnetic fields in 2D periodic structures and explain how bound states in the continuum (BICs) arise and behave in different symmetry classes. It is important to point out that every singularity point that occurs in multipolar series expansions depends on a BIC point, and it inspires us to study the characteristics of them. Furthermore, we analyze a variety of BICs and use perturbed and degeneracy breaking to investigate high-Q-factor quasi-BICs. The results provide a thorough understanding of how symmetry and multipolar interactions affect potential applications in cutting-edge metasurfaces and photonic devices (metaphotonic).
