Self-assembling-photonic-materials-research-articles

Photonic crystals (PCs) have received a great deal of attention as promising platforms for next generation optoelectronics, because of their intriguing prospects for the on-demand manipulation of not only photons, but also photon–matter interactions within a small space.  In general, PCs consist of periodically modulated structures of different dielectric materials with the periodic length nearly equal to the light wavelength. When a light wave propagates into a PC structure, we can observe the forbidden regions for photons in the dispersion spectrum. Such specific regions are known as ‘photonic band-gaps (PBGs)’. The way in which the PCs interact with light waves is analogous to the interaction of atomic crystals with electrons.
