1. A propagation apparatus for electromagnetic radiation, the propagation apparatus comprising
a first plurality of regions each having a first index of refraction; and a second plurality of spaced apart regions interleaved with the first plurality of regions, an index of refraction of each of the second plurality of spaced apart regions generally increases from the first index of refraction at a leading edge of the spaced apart region to a peak value and then decreases towards the first index of refraction at a trailing edge of the spaced apart region, wherein the electromagnetic radiation traverses generally in a first direction through a first region of the first plurality of regions, followed by a first region of the second plurality of spaced apart regions, followed by a second region of the first plurality of regions, and followed by a second region of the second plurality of spaced apart regions. |
