Fabrication of metallic 2D photonic crystals by holography

Fabrication of two‐dimensional photonic quasi‐crystals with 18‐ and 36‐fold by holography for solar application

“…Experimentally, five diffracted laser beams generated by using phase masks [18,19], flat-top prisms [20,21], two beam interference, four beam interference, special prism and combined holographic gratings as beam splitter (BS) have been involved in the fabrication of PCs by interference holographic lithography [22]. However, by using two beam multiexposure interference technique [23,24] has many advantages over the commonly used multi-beam interference technique; such as experimental simplicity, easy fabrication of different structures with long range and high contrast of structures [25] are few examples.…”
