Download or read book Fabrication and Study of the Optical Properties of 3D Photonic Crystals and 2D Graded Photonic Super Crystals written by David Lowell and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this dissertation, I am presenting my research on the fabrication and simulation of the optical properties of 3D photonic crystals and 2D graded photonic super-crystals. The 3D photonic crystals were fabricated using holographic lithography with a single, custom-built reflective optical element (ROE) and single exposure from a visible light laser. Fully 3D photonic crystals with 4-fold, 5- fold, and 6-fold symmetries were fabricated using the flexible, 3D printed ROE. In addition, novel 2D graded photonic super-crystals were fabricated using a spatial light modulator (SLM) in a 4f setup for pixel-by-pixel phase engineering. The SLM was used to control the phase and intensity of sets of beams to fabricate the 2D photonic crystals in a single exposure. The 2D photonic crystals integrate super-cell periodicities with 4-fold, 5-fold, and 6-fold symmetries and a graded fill fraction. The simulations of the 2D graded photonic super-crystals show extraordinary properties such as full photonic band gaps and cavity modes with Q-factors of ̃106. This research could help in the development of organic light emitting diodes, high-efficiency solar cells, and other devices.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 834 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since Dr. Disiich of Germany prepared a glass lens by the sol-gel method around 1970, sol-gel science and technology has continued to develop. Since then this field has seen remarkable technical developments as well as a broadening of the applications of sol-gel science and technology. There is a growing need for a comprehensive reference that treats both the fundamentals and the applications, and this is the aim of "Handbook of Sol-Gel Science and Technology."The primary purpose of sol-gel science and technology is to produce materials, active and non-active including optical, electronic, chemical, sensor, bio- and structural materials. This means that sol-gel science and technology is related to all kinds of manufacturing industries. Thus Volume 1, "Sol-Gel Processing," is devoted to general aspects of processing. Newly developed materials such as organic-inorganic hybrids, photonic crystals, ferroelectric coatings, photocatalysts will be covered. Topics in this volume include: Volume 2, "Characterization of Sol-Gel Materials and Products, "highlights the important fact that useful materials are only produced when characterization is tied to processing. Furthermore, characterization is essential to the understanding of nanostructured materials, and sol-gel technology is a most important technology in this new field. Since nanomaterials display their functional property based on their nano- and micro-structure, "characterization" is very important. Topics found in Volume 2 include: Sol-gel technology is a versatile technology, making it possible to produce a wide variety of materials and to provide existing substances with novel properties. This technology was applied to producingnovel materials, for example organic-inorganic hybrids, which are quite difficult to make by other fabricating techniques, and it was also applied to producing materials based on high temperature superconducting oxides. "Applications of Sol-Gel Technology," (Volume 3), will cover applications such as:

Download or read book Magnetic Structures of 2D and 3D Nanoparticles written by Jean-Claude Serge Levy and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-09-03 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Magnetic nanoparticles appear naturally in rock magnetism together with a large distribution of sizes and shapes. They have numerous applications from nano-size magnetic memories to metamaterials for electromagnetic waves as well as biological applications such as nanosurgery with minimal traumatism. Their long-ranged size- and shape-dependent dipolar interactions provide numerous useful properties. This book describes the preparation as well as the magnetic properties of nanoparticles and also considers 2D dots, nearly spherical samples, elongated samples, and various assemblies of nanoparticles. The authors report the static magnetic structures and dynamic properties of these nanoparticles and the topological defects in 2D and 3D nanoparticles with new examples of S-shaped vortex or antivortex and of bent vortex or antivortex in 3D nanoparticles. The spectrum of magnetic excitations is shown to exhibit the occurrence of gaps, a key for magnonic metamaterial devices. Magnetic excited states are also considered with their coupling to nanoparticle elastic properties.

Download or read book Novel Advancements in Nanofabrication for Photonic Crystal Applications written by Lin Lee Cheong and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The progress of large-area 2D- and 3D-photonic crystals (PCs) at optical and near infra-red frequencies has been limited by fabrication challenges. Periodic nanostructures must be patterned in high-index and crystalline material such as silicon over large areas (mm2 to cm2) with reasonable throughput. These patterns also must be placed coherently over the entire area, and contain controlled defects. No single conventional nanoscale patterning technique is able to fulfil all of these requirements simultaneously. Pattern placement and throughput challenges for planar lithography can be addressed by combining spatial-phase-locked electron-beam lithography (SPLEBL) with lowenergy (sub-2keV) electrons. SPLEBL obtains feedback on the electron-beam position using a reference grid placed on top of the resist. Combining low-energy lithography with SPLEBL places strict requirements on the SPLEBL reference grid. A systematic investigation on a suitable grid material is carried out, and a self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) based grid is fabricated and characterized. Another method of fabricating large area planar PCs is through interference lithography (IL). The key challenge is the inability of IL to pattern defects or non-periodic structures and thermal scanning probe lithography (TSPL) is proposed as a complementary technique to IL. Integrating TSPL with IL requires capability to transfer TSPL-fabricated patterns into underlying material and is challenging due to the thermal-mechanical nature of TSPL. A robust pattern transfer process is designed and the effects of the lithography and etch processes on resolution and line-edge roughness is studied. The membrane-stacking approach, where large-area membranes are fabricated in parallel and then stacked to form a 3D-PC, was proposed as a more efficient method of fabricating 3D-photonic crystals (3D-PCs) compared to conventional fabrication methods. There exists a need to develop techniques capable of fabricating, transferring and assembling these membranes. In this thesis, a membrane-on-carrier (MOC) strategy based on the membrane-stacking approach is proposed. Membranes are fabricated and floated on liquid, and then transferred onto a temporary rigid carrier. The key challenge is in separating the membrane from the rigid carrier onto a receiving substrate. A dissolvable separation layer is introduced between the membrane and carrier, and two membranes are stacked on top of another as proof-of-concept. Finally, azimuthal alignment is incorporated into the process.
