Large-area metallic photonic crystals (MPCs) consist of two-dimensional (2D) periodical arrays of gold nano-holes are fabricated by solution-processible gold nanoparticles using interference lithography in combination with subsequent lift-off and annealin
Photonic crystals have revolutionized the field of optics with their unique dispersion and energy band gap engineering capabilities, such as the demonstration of extreme group and phase velocities, topologically protected photonic edge states, and control
The output characteristics of neodymium-doped gadolinium vanadate (Nd:GdVO4) crystals laser with dual c-axis orthogonal gains end-pumped by two fiber-coupled diode lasers are investigated. With two 1 W semiconductor diode lasers pumping, the ou
