Research Abstract |
Three-dimensional(3D) Ta_2O_5/SiO_2 photonic crystals in the visible-violet spectral region are fabricated by an auto-cloning technique on patterned substrates with triangular lattice configurations and their in-plane (the stack XY plane) optical properties are studied. Reflection measurements by normal incidence of light on to the cleaved facet of the photonic crystal reveal maximum reflections at certain photon energies. Comparison with calculated band structure demonstrates that the reflection peaks are either due to the photonic bandgap(PBG) within which the light propagation is forbidden, or due to heavy photons associated with flat bands. A two-step deposition method is adopted to insert luminescent sample into the photonic crystal and the emission property is strongly modified by the photonic crystal. We investigated the optical properties of a circular photonic crystal(CPC) for which the distance between lattices was systematically distributed. The transmission spectra of CPC composed of alumina cylinders were examined in the frequency region from 0 to 20 GHz. We show that photonic gaps are obtained not only in CPCs but also in phase-shifted CPCs. The isotropic photonic gaps are evidenced by changes in the incident angle of a millimeter wave.
