Fabrication and optical evaluation of 1D and 2D photonic metamaterial crystal

Abstract

We fabricated the photonic metamaterial crystal structure and evaluate their photonic properties. The metamaterial photonic crystals studied here were periodic structures with two types of surface areas where two different dimension sprit ring resonators (SRR) were fabricated on each area. These two different SRR were designed to possess near but different resonance frequencies. We performed Fraunhofer diffraction measurement and reflection spectra measurement with polarized light for one dimensional (1D) and 2D photonic crystal structure. We successfully observed optical properties of the sample which reflected photonic crystal structure and sprit ring surface elements.
