Photonic crystal switching by the electrophoretic movement of dye ions

Photonic crystal reflectance switching by dye electrophoresis

“…Experimental details of cell fabrication have been previously presented. 8 The GLAD technique facilitates fabrication of structured thin films of metals, dielectrics, and organics at the nanometer scale using a physical vapor deposition system, in this case electron-beam evaporation. Substrate surface regions are shadowed from incident particles when the flux arrives at an oblique incident angle.…”
