Abstract
Optical interference holography has been proven to be a useful technique in fabricating periodic photonic crystals in which electromagnetic waves are forbidden in certain frequency band gaps. Compared to periodic crystals, quasicrystals, having higher point group symmetry, are more favorable in achieving complete band gaps. In this letter, we propose two seven-beam optical interference configurations based on the reciprocal vector space representation to fabricate icosahedral quasicrystals. Interference simulations for the quasicrystals exhibit the full symmetry of an icosahedron. The result paves the way for the fabrication of photonic quasicrystals using holographic lithography.
