The preferred citation for MPB is our paper on MPB and related topics:

• Steven G. Johnson and J. D. Joannopoulos, "Block-iterative frequency-domain methods for Maxwell's equations in a planewave basis," Optics Express 8, no. 3, 173-190 (2001), http://www.opticsexpress.org/abstract.cfm?URI=OPEX-8-3-173

Or, in BibTeX format:

If you want a one-sentence description of the algorithm for inclusion in a publication, we recommend:

Fully-vectorial eigenmodes of Maxwell's equations with periodic boundary conditions were computed by preconditioned conjugate-gradient minimization of the block Rayleigh quotient in a planewave basis, using a freely available software package [ref].
