摘要
We report the design and fabrication of the complete visible range omnidirectional mirror, with a dielectric multilayered structure based on porous silicon (PS). The refractive index profile consisted of Bragg type chirped layers with an increasing thicknesses modulated by a potential envelop function f (x) = Cx(k). The omnidirectional photonic band gap (OPBG) was measured from 396 to 805 nm, with more than 95% of the reflectivity, for 8 degrees and 68 degrees. The theoretical simulations based on the transfer matrix method along with a photographic sequence of the sample confirmed the OPBG for higher incident angles. It was enhanced by a factor of 19 as compared to the last reported visible region OPBG by PS dielectric multilayered structure. (C) 2012 American Institute of Physics.
