Control of the average light transmission in one-dimensional photonic structures by tuning the random layer thickness distribution

Broadband Solar Irradiation Reflection by Multilayer Photonic Structures with Randomized Layer Thickness

“…In this way, the layer thickness spans from 100 and 300 nm. In previous works [11,21] it has been reported that these photonic structures show many reflection peaks (or transmission valleys) all over the studied spectral region.…”

Dielectric mirror optimization based on the phase-compensation method

“…In the visible range, Deopura et al [3] described a multilayer reflector formed by a stack of 19 alternating layers of tin (IV) sulfide and silica. Nevertheless, aperiodic multilayer structures can not only rival purely periodic multilayers in terms of basic properties such as very high selective transmission [4,5], ultrabroad band reflection [6][7][8] or broadband filters [9], but also are widely used to manipulate light in different ways due to their structural flexibility. In particular, aperiodic multilayers have become a unique tool in ultrafast optics due to the way they can manage dispersion.…”
