Propagation of Light in Photonic Crystal Fibre Devices
, 2005 We describe a semi-analytical approach for three-dimensional analysis of photonic crystal fibre devices. The approach relies on modal transmission-line theory. We offer two examples illustrating the utilization of this approach in photonic crystal fibres:

Photon confinement in photonic crystal nanocavities [PDF]
Laser & Photonics Reviews, 2008 AbstractThe quest for enhanced light‐matter interactions has enabled a tremendous increase in the performance of photonic‐crystal nanoresonators in the past decade. State‐of‐the‐art nanocavities now offer mode lifetime in the nanosecond range with confinement volumes of a few hundredths of a cubic micrometer.
