Low Cost Microengineered Functional IR Material
Abstract
This report documents an approach to fabricating large area, low cost 3-D photonic crystal structures using continuously web compatible techniques. We document and detail a process that involves microembossing, differential stripping, direct transfer, and alignment. We also discuss an analytical technique that can be used to model the reflectance and transmittance of multilayer structures. The principle goal of SAIC's Highly Controlled Dielectric Emissivity (HIDE) program was to apply the techniques of large area, low cost, continuous web manufacturing to fabricate photonic band gap structures that exhibit finite width pass- and stop-band properties in the 8-12 micrometers wavelength regime.
