Two -Photon Polymerization of Defects in Photonic Crystals
… a complete PBG, it is necessary to convert colloidal photonic crystals to higher refractive index structures that exhibit complete PBGs. To this end, self-assembled photonic crystals with embedded TPP features were replicated in silicon. The TPP features and colloidal crystal served as a …

Assessment of colloidal self-assembly for photonic crystal
… significant interest on the implementation of photonic crystals, which have practical applications in reflectors, filters, resonators, and waveguides. In this thesis, self-assembly of colloidal crystals and photonic crystal technologies are reviewed. Potential colloidal photonic and …

Development of large-scale colloidal crystallisation methods for the production of photonic crystals
Colloidal photonic crystals have potential light manipulation applications including; fabrication of efficient lasers and LEDs, improved optical sensors and interconnects, and improving photovoltaic efficiencies. One road-block of colloidal selfassembly is their inherent defects; however, they can …

Polymer and metallodielectric based photonic crystals
The bottom-up colloidal synthesis of photonic crystals has attracted interest over top-down approaches due to their relatively simplicity, the potential to produce large areas, and the low-costs with this approach in fabricating complex 3-dimensional structures. This thesis focuses on the bottom-up …
