Omnidirectional reflection from a one-dimensional photonic crystal

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We demonstrate that one-dimensional photonic crystal structures (such as multilayer films) can exhibit complete reflection of radiation in a given frequency range for all incident angles and polarizations. We derive a general criterion for this behavior that does not require materials with very large indices. We perform numerical studies that illustrate this effect.
