Abstract
The structure and optical properties of quantum-dot photonic crystals (quantytes) were studied. Such crystals have the so-called band gaps, which leads to a strong reflection of electromagnetic waves from the crystal surface. It was shown that in certain spectral regions the refractive index has a negative sign, and the group velocity of electromagnetic waves essentially decreases. The applications of quantytes as optical information recording and rewriting devices, negative refractive optical elements, selective mirrors, narrowband filters, and others were discussed.
