Photonic band structures map out the dispersion relations of the confined electromagnetic modes in a photonic crystal and are associated with enhanced light-matter interactions such as magneto-optical effects. Our method enables the mapping out of

Photonic band structure enables understanding how confined electromagnetic modes propagate within a photonic crystal. In photonic crystals that incorporate magnetic elements, such confined and resonant optical modes are accompanied by enhanced and modified magneto-optical activity. We describe a measurement procedure to extract the magneto-optical band structure by Fourier space microscopy.
