We use evolutionary algorithms to search the space of two-dimensional photonic crystals with maximum bandgaps for a given index contrast. The unit-cells of the photonic crystal are represented as bitmaps which are either directly encoded or generated through bottom-up and top-down construction trees. The fitness criterion rewards for partial band gaps and is evaluated by solving for the photoni...
We present an alternative definition of impedance to describe the reflection at the interfaces of photonic crystals. We show that this effective impedance can be defined only by the properties of the photonic crystal modes and is independent of the properties of the incident region. This approximate model successfully explains the main features in the reflection spectrum and of various interfac...
Submitted for the MAR15 Meeting of The American Physical Society Self-assembled tunable photonic hyper-crystals1 IGOR SMOLYANINOV, University of Maryland, VERA SMOLYANINOVA, BRADLEY YOST, DAVID LAHNEMAN, THOMAS GRESOCK, Towson University, EVGENII NARIMANOV, Purdue University — We demonstrate a novel artificial optical material, the photonic hyper-crystal, which combines the most interesting fea...
A certain class of photonic crystals with conical dispersion is known to behave as isotropic zero-refractive-index medium. However, the discrete building blocks in such photonic crystals are limited to construct multidirectional devices, even for high-symmetric photonic crystals. Here, we show multidirectional emission from low-symmetric photonic crystals with semi-Dirac dispersion at the zone ...
Photonic crystals are periodically engineered “materials” which are the photonic analogues of electronic crystals. Much like electronic crystal, photonic crystal materials can have a variety of crystal symmetries, such as simple-cubic, closed-packed, Wurtzite and diamond-like crystals. These structures were first proposed in late 1980’s. However, due mainly to fabrication difficulties, working ...
The guided modes lying in the upper gap-edge band in the photonic band structure of photonic crystals have negative values of refractive index. This feature generates many interesting optical phenomena, and some spectacular photonic devices such as focusing slabs have been developed. We report the design of a photonic-crystal, planoconcave lens for focusing incident parallel light, and theoreti...
This review concerns the recently emerged class of composite colloidal photonic crystals (PCs), in which gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are included in the photonic structure. The use of composites allows achieving a strong modification of the optical properties of photonic crystals by involving the light scattering with electronic excitations of the gold component (surface plasmon resonance, SPR) ...
Photonic crystals consist of artificial periodic structures of dielectrics, which have attracted much attention because of their wide range of potential applications in the field of optics. We may also fabricate artificial amorphous or quasicrystalline structures of dielectrics, i.e. photonic amorphous materials or photonic quasicrystals. So far, both theoretical and experimental studies have b...
The authors describe the fabrication and characterization of three dimensional silicon inverse woodpile photonic crystals. A dual exposure, two-photon, conformal phasemask technique is used to create high quality polymer woodpile structures over large areas with geometries that quantitatively match expectations based on optical simulations. Depositing silicon into these templates followed by th...
We experimentally investigated the influence of positional disorder on the photonic band gap, defect characteristics, and waveguiding in two-dimensional dielectric and metallic photonic crystals. Transmission measurements performed on the dielectric photonic crystals have shown a stop band even if a large amount of disorder was introduced to these structures. On the other hand, the photonic ban...
