Fabrication of Photonic Crystals Using Holographic Lithography

  • Chapter
Book cover Organic and Hybrid Photonic Crystals

Abstract

Fabrication of periodical micro- and nano-structures with functional defects is one of the key issues in photonic crystals and metamaterials research fields. Low cost, fast, and simple fabrication techniques capable of producing photonic structures in a large scale are crucial to realize their potential applications. In this chapter, we will firstly provide an overview of recent research activities in the fabrication of photonic crystals especially by holographic lithography technique. Secondly, we will emphasize on discussing the principle, advantage, and experimental processes of the single-prism based holographic lithography method, where the refractive prism compacts and simplifies the optical experimental setup since it can split and recombine multiple beams simultaneously. Specific examples from recent literature will be illustrated. We will also demonstrate how to generate functional defects by modulating the phase of the laser beam in one-, two-, and three-dimensional periodic structures in a single exposure holographic process. Lastly, we will concentrate on discussing the application of the templates fabricated by the holographic lithography technique, such as inversing the templates by infiltrating functional materials, or materials with higher refractive index than polymers to obtain larger photonic band gap.
