“…Nanoimprint method was proposed [7] for the fabrication of one and two dimensional PCS in polymethyl-methacrylate, structures with 800 nm period were obtained this way. Using special multi-faced prism, which splits the laser beam into four beams and converges them afterwards on a light-sensitive material, authors of [8] recorded PC with forbidden gap at 1400 nm. In [8] 3D PC was fabricated by the multi-beam holographic lithography in SU-8 photoresist using single optical element, which formed beams' convergence at selected necessary angles.…”

Two-dimensional photonic crystal structures (PCS) were fabricated using a one-step recording process, multi-beam interference in smart polymer nanocomposites incorporating SiO2 and Au nanoparticles sensitized to 532 nm laser radiation. It was shown, that PCS with different geometry can be recorded in thick nanocomposite layers. The typical two dimensional (2D) PCS have square structure with 2-8 µm period, being in good agreement with theoretical structures obtained by mathematical modeling of the recorded PCS. The peculiarities of the photo-polymerization of nanocomposites with plasmonic Au nanoparticles were analyzed on the basis of Surface Plasmon Resonance Imaging (SPRi) and Raman spectroscopy investigations and used for the interpretation of the recording process and periodic structure formation.

“…Multiple-beam-based interference lithography has been used for the fabrication of a photonic crystal template [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]. The use of a phase mask or single reflection optical element has greatly reduced the complexity and has improved the mechanical stability of the optical setup [13][14][15][16][17][18][19]. Recently, SLM has been used as an electrically adjustable phase mask for the interference lithography [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27].…”

Holographic Fabrication and Optical Property of Graded Photonic Super-Crystals with a Rectangular Unit Super-Cell

et al. 2018

Recently developed graded photonic super-crystals show an enhanced light absorption and light extraction efficiency if they are integrated with a solar cell and an organic light emitting device, respectively. In this paper, we present the holographic fabrication of a graded photonic super-crystal with a rectangular unit super-cell. The spatial light modulator-based pixel-by-pixel phase engineering of the incident laser beam provides a high resolution phase pattern for interference lithography. This also provides a flexible design for the graded photonic super-crystals with a different ratio of length over the width of the rectangular unit super-cell. The light extraction efficiency is simulated for the organic light emitting device, where the cathode is patterned with the graded photonic super-crystal. The high extraction efficiency is maintained for different exposure thresholds during the interference lithography. The desired polarization effects are observed for certain exposure thresholds. The extraction efficiency reaches as high as 75% in the glass substrate.

“…The use of single refractive [5,6] (or reflective [7]) optical elements or spatial light modulators (SLMs) [8][9][10][11][12][13] has significantly reduced the complexity of the optical setup for multiple-beam interference-based holographic lithography. One can program phase patterns including desired defect features and display them on the SLM.…”

In this paper, we present two methods for registering desired defect lattices within background periodic lattices through spatial light-modulator-based holographic lithography. In the first method, the diffraction efficiency from the engineered phase pattern was used to locally modify the fill fraction of polymerized materials in holographic structures, and, at the same time, we achieved the lattice matching between modified and background regions. In the second method, we registered spatially variant lattices for a 90 deg bend within the background periodic lattices through two steps of phase engineering of the laser beam.
