Spatially Variant Photonic Crystals and Possible Applications

Abstract

Spatially variant photonic crystals (SVPCs) are a new concept in photonics that provide new optical properties and an extraordinary means for multiplexing functions and incorporating bio-inspired randomness and materials. In the present work, planar SVPCs based on self-collimation are investigated.
