    Abstract

    An original method for computing the reflectance of photonic crystal whose unit cell is composed of form-birefringence anisotropic elements (e.g., cylinders) is proposed. This method, based on the layer homogenization of the photonic crystal, is particularly useful when the reflectance is calculated for different crystal orientations. The far-field color due to an additive color effect in a natural photonic polycrystal found on Entimus imperialis weevil was investigated.
