摘要
In this paper we present lithographic-based fabrication methods for the realization of three-dimensional photonic crystals (PhCs). These methods are based on. novel implementations of single and multi-step UV lithography. To this end, we begin by presenting a technique based on a multi-step process that allows for the stacking. of Planar photonic lattice layers that when repeated in the vertical direction serves to construct a three-dimensional PhC lattice. This process offers the unique ability to implement arbitrary defects, which thereby enables resonant cavities and embedded PhC waveguides. In addition, we also present a process based on three-dimensional interference lithography, which enables the realization of 3D photonic crystal lattices in a single lithographic step. Details of these processes and preliminary experimental results are presented.
