This review article describes the state-of-art methodologies, mainly self-assembly routes,
which are in practice to fabricate photonic crystals (PCs) for advanced applications. The self …

We investigated peculiarities of absorption, emission and photonic density of states of a
cholesteric liquid crystal with an isotropic defect layer inside. The influence of the defect …

A modified emulsion synthesis of poly (methylmethacrylate)(PMMA) with the Eosin Y (EY),
commercial chromophore, yields dye doped polymeric nanoparticles (PMMA@ EY). A …

The advent of photonic crystals has made possible the idea of controlling flows of light,
which has revolutionized photonics-based technology. Photonic crystals are constructed …

Highly efficient on-chip asymmetric absorption devices are indispensable for all-optical
computing, information processing, etc., but the asymmetric absorption of light has rarely …

Recently, the nitrogen vacancy (NV) center has emerged as a deterministic single-photon
source at room temperature. However, the presence of phonon sideband emission limits the …

Photonic crystals are essentially a periodic (“crystalline”) arrangement of dielectric
nanoparticles that respond in unison to incident light. They can be used to harvest light in …

Perovskite nanoparticle (NP)-embedded copolymer particles are prepared via self-emulsion
polymerization (SEP) and a vapor-assisted solution process (VASP). The prepared particles …

Three-dimensional ordered photonic crystals have been fabricated on solid substrates with
a self-assembling method starting from a suspension of dye-doped polymeric nanospheres …

We demonstrate the lasing and amplified spontaneous emission in the polymeric inverse
opal photonic crystal resonating cavity. The resonating cavity is constructed by sandwiching …
