This paper presents the characteristics of guided (surface) waves and leaky waves on multilayer structures with planar implanted periodic dielectric blocks. A three-dimensional (3-D) integral-equation formulation in conjunction with the method of moments (MoM's) is used to find the propagation constants of the surface-wave and leaky-wave modes. The analysis deals with layered structures with irregular implants. Photonic band-gaps of both guided waves and leaky waves for rectangular air-implants are identified. Anisotropic properties of the surface waves and leaky waves are investigated. The design of leaky-wave antennas with the information of mode characteristics is discussed. The analysis is validated through the comparison with a low-frequency effective-medium approach and results for linear gratings.
