The calculation is presented for the photonic bands for the fcc array of dielectric spheres, using the vector spherical-waves as basis functions. It is shown that the dimension of the secular determinant is less than 100, or less than one tenth of that of the plane-wave basis functions. Based upon the calculated eigenvectors, the symmetry properties of the electric-field vectors, the angle between the electric- and displcement-field vectors and the orthonormality of the Bloch states are investigated. Also the convergence of the plane-wave expansion is examined. Furthermore, we have demonstrated the existence of the modes appropriately called heavy photons, whose origin is exactly identical to the electronic analogues, heavy fermions.
