  • 광결정(photonic crystal)은 빛의 파장 크기 정도의 격자 상수를 지닌 1차원, 2차원, 또는 3차원의 주기적인 구조이다. 최근에 2차원 광결정 공진기 구조에서 광펌핑으로 레이저 발진이 성공한 결과가 발표되면서 광결정 구조를 이용한 광소자로의 응용이 본격적으로 시작되고 있다. 하지만, 2차원 광결정 발광 구조에서는 능동 매질이 공기 중과 접한 영역이 넓어서 필연적으로 면에서의 비발광 결합이 중요한 문제가 된다. 이러한 문제 때문에 반도체에 기반한 광결정 구조 중에서는 비발광 결합이 비교적 적은 InP/InGaAsP 계열 물질이 능동 매질로 이용되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 광결정 발광 구조에서 표면 비발광 결합이 실제로 어느 정도나 영향을 미치는가에 대한 연구를 수행하였다.

  • The characteristics of $S\breve{o}lc$ filters in $X^{(2)}$ nonlinear photonic crystals, periodically poled lithium niobate ($LiNbO_3$), were investigated by the Jones matrix method. The transmittance increases and the full width half maximum of the filter becomes narrow as the duty ratio increases. However, the filtering wavelength does not change. The transmittance at the filtering wavelength is over 95% when the duty ratio is larger than 0.35.

  • Using the Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) method that analyzes the Maxwell equations in time domain, we simulated the characteristics of optical wave propagation and defect modes in two-dimensional photonic crystals composed of dielectric cylinders located on triangular, square, and honeycomb lattices. In particular, we investigated the properties of defect modes as the permittvity of the defects is varied. aried.

  • Various types of smart dust based on photonic crystal exhibiting unique reflectivity were successfully obtained by an electrochemical etching of silicon wafer using square wave currents. Smart dust containing Bragg structure obtained from the sonication of DBR porous silicon film in solution retained its optical reflectivity. Field emission scanning electron micrograph (FE-SEM) was used to measure the size of optically encoded smart dust and its size can be tuned from few hundred nanometers to few microns depending on the duration of sonication. Optical characteristics of smart dust were used to investigate a possible applications such as chemical sensors.

  • In this study we suggest a humidity-sensitive color sensor using a one-dimensional photonic crystal and Hong Kong University of Science and Technology-1 (HKUST-1), which is a metal-organic framework (MOF) substance. One-dimensional photonic crystals have a photonic band gap, due to a periodic refractive-index change, and block and reflect light components in a specific wavelength band. The refractive index of HKUST-1 differs in dry and humid environments. Herein we designed a sensor using the presence of the photonic band gap, with FDTD simulation. As a result of optical analysis, the color conversion of the reflected light was superior to the color conversion of the transmitted light. When the center wavelength of the photonic band gap was 550 nm, the maximum peak value of the wet environment increased by a factor of about 9.5 compared to the dry environment, and the color conversion from achromatic to green was excellent as a sensor. The results of this study suggest the application of MOF materials to moisture sensors, and the nanostructure design of MOF materials will expand the applications to industrial devices.

  • We have obtained opal-like photonic crystals based on opals and inverted opals exhibiting a shift of the selective reflection band toward longer and shorter wavelengths with respect to the diffraction band of the initial opal consisting of $SiO_2$ spheres. The contribution of frames forming three-dimensional periodic structures and that of fillers to the spectral arrangement of the diffraction bands has been determined.
