Bhaskar likens this to a rhythmic dance of light energy within the crystal, where light is amplified while taking on the properties of the photonic crystal. One property of the crystal ...

When you're challenging a century-old assumption, you're bound to meet a bit of resistance. That's exactly what John ...

Photonic Crystal Fibers (PCFs) represent one of the most successful and impactful applications of photonic crystals. These specialized optical fibers incorporate a microstructured arrangement of ...

Researchers from the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers developed a numerical simulation technique to analyze light wave interactions within Photonic Crystal Surface-Emitting Lasers ...

The study of photonic crystal fibres (PCF) began in the early 1990s, and was initially motivated by the desire to create fibres that guided by means of a photonic bandgap effect. The first ...

Manuele Landini from the University of Innsbruck was part of an international team led by researchers at CNR Nanotec in Lecce ...

Current methods require assembling colloidal nanospheres into precise photonic crystal arrangements or amorphous photonic structures – processes that can take hours or days. These methods struggle ...

The research group led by Susumu Noda, professor of the Graduate School of Engineering, Kyoto University, has succeeded in enhancing the brightness *1 of a semiconductor laser to 1 GW cm-2 sr-1 based ...
