Flexible all-glass planar structured fabricated by RF-sputtering

Flexible SiO2/HfO2 1D photonic crystals and active SiO2–HfO2:Er3+ all-glass flexible planar waveguides fabricated by radio frequency sputtering, are presented. The 1D photonic crystals show a strong dependence of the optical features on the light incident angle: i) blue-shift of the stopband and ii)... View More
