A resonator with a three-dimensional photonic crystal having a fewer
number of layers presenting a basic period, having a wide frequency band
presenting a complete photonic band gap, and operating in a single mode,
as well as a device using the same are provided, the three-dimensional
photonic crystal including a period defect member and a period structure
member having periodically laminated plural layers including a
refractive-index periodic structure, the plural layers including first to
fourth layers each having a periodic structure, the period defect member
being provided by a columnar structure disposed at the second or fourth
layer and on an axis of the columnar structure formed in the second or
fourth layer.
