  1. 1. InP-based photonic crystals : Processing, Material properties and Dispersion effects

    Author : Audrey Berrier; Srinivasan Anand; Alfred Forchel; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Photonic crystals; indium phosphide; photonic bandgap; Bloch modes; slow light; dispersion; coupled cavity waveguides; chemically assisted ion beam etching; lag effect; cavities; optical losses; carrier transport; carrier lifetimes; negative refraction; photonic bandstructure; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : Photonic crystals (PhCs) are periodic dielectric structures that exhibit a photonic bandgap, i.e., a range of wavelength for which light propagation is forbidden. The special band structure related dispersion properties offer a realm of novel functionalities and interesting physical phenomena. READ MORE
