Three Dimensional Photonics Crystal Photonic Crystal Micro-Cavity Characteristics: Spontaneous emission in the materials is enhanced and can be controlled. Frequency, polarization, symmetry and field distribution of the modes in defect states can be controlled by changing the geometric symmetry and refractive index of defects. Energy of modes concentrate on the defects and attenuated exponentially with distance from the center of defects. Evanescent field can be coupled with the external field of modes. Applications: - Photonic Crystal Resonator and Coupled Resonator Optical Waveguide. - Photonic Crystal Mirror, Switcher and Narrow Band Loss-free Filters. - Photonic Crystal LD, Lasers without the threshold and VCSEL.
