Abstract

Photonic crystals are emerging as a potential disruptive technology for the coming decade. The functionality of photonic crystals could be dramatically enhanced by providing a means to tune their spectral properties. In the past, tunable photonic crystals have been demonstrated using liquid crystals^1,2 to control the refractive index, for which the optimal response time is milliseconds. Recently, it was suggested that thermally injected free-carriers could be used to tune photonic crystals.
