Observation of Complete Photonic Bandgap in Low Refractive Index Contrast Inverse Rod-Connected Diamond Structured Chalcogenides

Lifeng Chen, Katrina A. Morgan, Ghada A. Alzaidy +9

Three-dimensional complete photonic bandgap materials or photonic crystals block light propagation in all directions. The rod-connected diamond structure exhibits the largest photo…

Strong Light Confinement in Rod-Connected Diamond Photonic Crystals

M. P. C. Taverne, Y. -L. D. Ho, X. Zheng +3

We show that it is possible to confine light in a volume of order 10^-3 cubic wavelengths using only dielectric material. Low-index (air) cavities are simulated in high index rod-c…

Direct Wide-angle Measurement of Photonic Band- structure in a Three-dimensional Photonic Crystal using Infrared Fourier Imaging Spectroscopy

Lifeng Chen, Martin Lopez-Garcia, Mike P. C. Taverne +3

We propose a method to directly visualize the photonic band-structure of micron size photonic crystals using wide angle spectroscopy. By extending Fourier Imaging Spectroscopy sens…

Modelling Defect Cavities Formed in Inverse Three-Dimensional Rod-Connected Diamond Photonic Crystals

M. P. C. Taverne, Y. -L. D. Ho, X. Zheng +4

Defect cavities in 3D photonic crystal can trap and store light in the smallest volumes allowable in dielectric materials, enhancing non-linearities and cavity QED effects. Here, w…

Evidence of near-infrared partial photonic bandgap in polymeric rod-connected diamond structures

Lifeng Chen, Mike P. C. Taverne, Xu Zheng +5

We present the simulation, fabrication, and optical characterization of low-index polymeric rod-connected diamond (RCD) structures. Such complex three-dimensional photonic crystal…
