Like as the waves make towards the pebbled shore, So do our minutes hasten to their end, Each changing place with that which goes before, In sequent toil all forward to contend.— William Shakespeare

Waves always behave in a similar way, whether they are longitudinal or transverse, elastic or electric. Scientists of last century always kept this idea in mind··· . This general philosophy of wave propagation, forgotten for a time, has been strongly revived in the last decade···— L. Brillouin (1946)

Bloch Waves

Some common traits for wave propagation in periodic structures Tuning condition: Lattice separation a and Characteristic wavelengthsλ Electrons:λ= ( 2/2mE)1/2, ranges from lattice spacing to bulk size

Lattice vibrations: acoustic branches and optical branches Wavelengths ranges from lattice spacing to bulk size Electromagnetic radiation:γ-ray (< 0.4 ), X-ray (0.4～ 50 ), ultraviolet ray (50～ 4000 ), A A A visible light (4000～ 7000 ), infrared ray (0.76～ 600µm), A to microwave and radio wave (> 0.1 mm)

Discussed above can be generalized to other cases of wave equations with periodic potentials.
