Transmission-type photonic crystal structures for color filters

Opt Express. 2013 Jul 29;21(15):18317-24. doi: 10.1364/OE.21.018317.

Abstract

A transmission-type structure based on woodpile photonic crystal layers is proposed for use in color filters. Selective bandpass filters for red, green, and blue wavelength bands are constructed using optimally designed multilayered woodpile photonic crystals. The R/G/B color filtering for a wide range of incidence angles of light is demonstrated numerically, and the operation principle and design method are described.
