Complete 3D PBG in 3D Photonic Crystals (= Photonic Insulator)

New Way to Make Full PBG PCs
(using Alternating-layer deposion)

  1. Lithographic patterning of the substrate
  2. Si/SiO2 alternating-layer deposition (autocloning bias-sputter depsosion)
  3. Additional lithographic patterning (through-hole)
