摘要：
The elastic coupling between the a-SiO(2) spheres composing opal films brings forth three-dimensional periodic structures which besides a photonic stop band are predicted to also exhibit complete phononic band gaps. The influence of elastic crystal vibrations on the photonic band structure has been studied by injection of coherent hypersonic wave packets generated in a metal transducer by subpicosecond laser Pulses. These studies show that light with energies close to the photonic band gap can be efficiently modulated by hypersonic waves.
