Studying Focusing Properties of Graded Index Photonic Crystals Made of Material with Different Refractive Index
In this paper we investigate focusing properties of graded index (GRIN) photonic crystal (PC) structures which are composed of different materials with different refractive indices. GRIN PC structure is constructed from air holes in dielectric background. The holes radii are varied in the normal direction to the propagation in such a way that a parabolic effective refractive index is produced. ...
متن کاملZero phase delay in negative-refractive-index photonic crystal superlattices
We show that optical beams propagating in path-averaged zero-index photonic crystal superlattices can have zero phase delay. The nanofabricated superlattices consist of alternating stacks of negative index photonic crystals and positive index homogeneous dielectric media, where the phase differences corresponding to consecutive primary unit cells are measured with integrated Mach-Zehnder interf...
متن کاملPhotonic crystals and negative refractive index materials
We review the research of our group on propagation of electromagnetic waves in photonic crystals (PCs) and micrometer scale left-handed materials (LHMs). The main topics that we focus on regarding PCs are the modification of the spontaneous emission rate of sources embedded into them, their ability to produce beams with high directionality and their negative refraction and focusing properties, ...
متن کاملFlexible photonic crystal membranes with nanoparticle high refractive index layers
Flexible photonic crystal slabs with an area of 2 cm2 are fabricated by nanoimprint replication of a 400 nm period linear grating nanostructure into a ≈60 µm thick polydimethylsiloxane membrane and subsequent spin coating of a high refractive index titanium dioxide nanoparticle layer. Samples are prepared with different nanoparticle concentrations. Guided-mode resonances with a quality factor o...
متن کاملRefractive index sensing with an air-slot photonic crystal nanocavity.
We investigate an air-slot photonic crystal cavity for high-precision refractive index sensing. The high quality factor approximately 2.6x10(4) of the cavity, along with a strong overlap between the resonant mode and the hollow core region, allows us to achieve an experimental sensitivity of 510nm per refractive index unit (RUI) and a detection limit below 1x10(-5)RUI. The device has a remarkab...
