VTechWorks staff will be away for the winter holidays starting Tuesday, December 24, 2024, through Wednesday, January 1, 2025, and will not be replying to requests during this time. Thank you for your patience, and happy holidays!
Multiple laser beam interference allows to produce periodic light patterns in the order of the wavelength of light. A simulation program helps to identify different patterns and to investigate the influence of changing parameters such as e.g. the angle of incidence or the polarization. A positive photoresist (Shipley S1805) is used to create two-dimensional metallic photonic crystals by UV interference lithography.
