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 کاملResonant behavior and selective switching of stop bands in three-dimensional photonic crystals with inhomogeneous components.
We demonstrate that, in contrast with the well-studied photonic crystals consisting of two homogeneous components, photonic crystals comprised of inhomogeneous or multiple (three or more) components may bring new opportunities to photonics due to the discovered quasiperiodic resonant behavior of their (hkl) stop bands as a function of the reciprocal lattice vector. A resonant stop band cannot b...

متن کاملEtched distributed Bragg reflectors as three-dimensional photonic crystals: photonic bands and density of states.
The photonic band dispersion and density of states (DOS) are calculated for the three-dimensional (3D) hexagonal structure corresponding to a distributed Bragg reflector patterned with a 2D triangular lattice of circular holes. Results for the Si/SiO(2) and GaAs/Al(x)Ga(1-x)As systems determine the optimal parameters for which a gap in the 2D plane occurs and overlaps the 1D gap of the multilay...
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-...
