Polarization Stop Bands in Chiral Polymeric Three-Dimensional Photonic Crystals
Chiral 3D photonic crystals are an interesting subclass of 3D photonic crystals. For example, large complete 3D photonic bandgaps have been predicted for high-index-contrast silicon square-spiral structures; corresponding experiments using glancing-incidence deposition, interference lithography, or direct laser writing have been published. In addition to complete gaps or stop bands, theory also...
متن کاملSelf-alignment of liquid crystals in three-dimensional photonic crystals.
We report on the observation of self-alignment of nematic liquid crystals into colloidal photonic crystals, over distances much larger than the typical size of the voids between the spheres. We observe that the infiltrated structure possesses a unique optical axis that is determined by an intrinsic structural anisotropy of photonic crystal opals. We develop a simple model to describe this self-...

متن کاملSelf-organized silver nanoparticles for three-dimensional plasmonic crystals.
Metal nanostructures that support surface plasmons are compelling as plasmonic circuit elements and as the building blocks for metamaterials. We demonstrate here the spontaneous self-assembly of shaped silver nanoparticles into three-dimensional plasmonic crystals that display a frequency-selective response in the visible wavelengths. Extensive long-range order mediated by exceptional colloid m...
متن کاملConditions for self-collimation in three-dimensional photonic crystals.
We introduce the theoretical criterion for achieving three-dimensional self-collimation of light in a photonic crystal. Based on this criterion, we numerically demonstrate a body-center-cubic structure that supports wide-angle self-collimation and is directly compatible with the recently developed holographic fabrication technique. We further show that both bends and beam splitters can be intro...
