Abstract: | The spatial distribution of the electromagnetic field in a two-dimensional photonic crystal with a lattice defect is investigated.
It is shown that in such a structure the field can be localized in a region smaller than one wavelength in size. The dependence
of the spectrum of defect modes on the parameters of a two-dimensional photonic crystal is investigated. The light field at
the exit of the photonic crystal possesses properties of a nonradiative mode, making it possible to achieve spatial resolution
in the near-field much higher than the radiation wavelength. The possibilities of using this phenomenon in optical near-field
microscopy to produce optical memory devices and to increase the efficiency of nonlinear optical interactions are discussed.
