Photonic bandgap structure

A photonic bandgap structure having multiple stacked layers has a thickness from the top of its top layer to the bottom of its bottom layer of less than one micron. Metal conducting layers having negative real dielectric constants are positioned between semiconductor layers having positive dielectri...

Zusammenfassung:A photonic bandgap structure having multiple stacked layers has a thickness from the top of its top layer to the bottom of its bottom layer of less than one micron. Metal conducting layers having negative real dielectric constants are positioned between semiconductor layers having positive dielectric constants. The layers are arranged and stacked, and the thicknesses and materials for the semiconductor layers and conductive layers are selected to realize desired absorption, transmission, and reflection characteristics.
