Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystals formed by ordering of nanoparticles (NPs) of different nature in the polymeric matrix were studied. For 2D structure fabrication, we used a modified method of holographic lithography. Interfering beams (3, 4, 6) were formed using a spatial light modulator that provides a continuous phase shift between recording beams, variation of the structure symmetries as well as localization of polymer- and NP-enriched areas. The use of 2D structures in narrow-band lasers with distributed feedback and low lasing excitation threshold was demonstrated.
