Cladding structures of photonic band-gap fibers often have air-holes of non-circular shape and, typically, close-to-hexagonal air holes with curved corners are observed. We study photonic band-gaps in such structures by aid of a…
One of the principal goals in the design of photonic crystals is the engineering of band gaps and defect states. Drawing on the concepts of band-structure topology, I here describe the formation of exponentially localized, topologically…
The quest for novel designs for lightweight phononic crystals and elastic metamaterials with wide lowfrequency band gaps has proven to be a significant challenge in recent years. In this context, lattice-type materials represent a promising…
We study numerically the reflectivity of three-dimensional (3D) photonic crystals with a complete 3D photonic band gap, with the aim to interpret recent experiments. We employ the finite element method to study crystals with the cubic…
A silicon inverse diamond structure whose lattice point shape was vacant regular octahedrons had a complete photonic band gap at around 0.4 THz and X point's photonic band gap (0.36 THz to 0.44 THz) by plane wave expansion method. It is…
The design and development of new photonic devices for technological applications requires a deep understanding of the effect of structural properties on the resulting band gap size and its position. Here, we perform a theoretical study of…
State-of-the-art computational methods combined with common idealized structural models provide an incomplete understanding of experiments on real nanostructures, since manufacturing introduces unavoidable deviations from the design. We…
Architected materials that control elastic wave propagation are essential in vibration mitigation and sound attenuation. Phononic crystals and acoustic metamaterials use band gap engineering to forbid certain frequencies from propagating…
We explore the unconventional propagation of light in a three-dimensional (3D) superlattice of coupled resonant cavities in a 3D photonic band gap crystal. Such a 3D cavity superlattice is the photonic analogue of the Anderson model for…
The geometric design of structures with optimized physical and chemical properties is one of the core topics in materials science. However, designing new functional materials is challenging due to the vast number of existing and the…
In the fast growing two-dimensional (2D) materials family, anisotropic 2D materials, with their intrinsic in-plane anisotropy, exhibit a great potential in optoelectronics. One such typical material is black phosphorus (BP), with a…
It is shown that simple face-centered-cubic (fcc) structures of both metallic and coated metallic spheres are ideal candidates to achieve a tunable complete photonic bandgap (CPBG) for optical wavelengths using currently available…
The reflecting features (reflected spectrum and phase) on the surface of pure-material plate depend on refractive index, extinction coefficient, incident angle, polarization direction and so on. The features, however, do not depend on a cut…
Highly dispersive photonic band-gap-edge optofluidic biosensors are studied theoretically. We demonstrate that these structures are strongly sensitive to the refractive index of the liquid, which is used to tune dispersion of the photonic…
We investigate non-Hermitian photonic crystals in which the lossy and lossless constituents share the same real permittivity and differ only in their imaginary part. We characterize the complex band structure and reflection response of both…
Colloidal self-assembly allows rational design of structures on the micrometer and submicrometer scale. One architecture that can generate complete 3D photonic band gaps is the diamond cubic lattice, which has remained difficult to realize…
A sound wave travelling in water is scattered by a periodic assembly of air bubbles. The local structure matters even in the low frequency regime. If the bubbles are arranged in a face-centered cubic (fcc) lattice, a total band gap opens…
The rings, spots and stripes found on some butterflies, Pachyrhynchus weevils, and many chameleons are notable examples of natural organisms employing photonic crystals to produce colorful patterns. Despite advances in nanotechnology, we…
Here, we present an astrophotonic spectrograph in the near-IR H-band (1.45 -1.65 $\mu m$) and a spectral resolution ($\lambda/\delta\lambda$) of 1500. The main dispersing element of the spectrograph is a photonic chip based on…
We propose a general method to arbitrarily manipulate an electromagnetic wave propagating in a two-dimensional medium, without introducing any scattering. This leads to a whole class of isotropic spatially varying permittivity and…
