Integral estimator of broadband omnidirectionality
A. G. Barriuso, J. J. Monzon, L. L. Sanchez-Soto +1
By using the notion of wavelength- and angle-averaged reflectance, we assess in a systematic way the performance of finite omnidirectional reflectors. We put forward how this conce…

Comparing omnidirectional reflection from periodic and quasiperiodic one-dimensional photonic crystals
A. G. Barriuso, J. J. Monzon, L. L. Sanchez-Soto +1
We determine the range of thicknesses and refractive indices for which omnidirectional reflection from quasiperiodic multilayers occurs. By resorting to the notion of area under th…

Optimizing omnidirectional reflection by multilayer mirrors
T. Yonte, J. J. Monzon, A. Felipe +1
Periodic layered media can reflect strongly for all incident angles and polarizations in a given frequency range. Quarter-wave stacks at normal incidence are commonplace in the des…
