A Three-Dimensional Photonic Crystal with Stop Band Between at 1.35 and 1.95 Microns
A combination of advanced silicon processing techniques were used to create three- dimensional (3D) photonic crystals with a 180 nano-meter minimum dimension. The resulting 3D crystal displays a strong stop band at optical wavelengths, L=l .35- 1.95pm. This is the smallest 3D crystal ever achieved with a complete 3D photonic band gap.
