Abstract
The interactions of two-dimensional 10-fold and 12-fold photonic quasicrystals with a moving electron beam have been studied by using the multiple-scattering method. The electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) and three-dimensional local density of states in these systems have been calculated. Some three-dimensional localized states in these defect-free two-dimensional systems have been found. It has been demonstrated that these localized states can be explored by means of the EELS.
