    All-chalcogenide glass omnidirectional photonic band gap variable infrared filters
    (AIP Publishing, 2009) Kondakci, H. E.; Yaman, M.; Koylu, O.; Dana, A.; Bayındır, Mehmet
    We report on the design, fabrication, and characterization of spatially variable infrared photonic band gap filter that consists of thermally evaporated, high refractive indexcontrast, amorphous chalcogenide glass multilayers. Due to graded thickness structure, the filter exhibits a position dependent stop band and a cavity mode ranging from 1.8 to 3.4 μm3.4 μmwavelengths. Reflection measurements on the variable filter agree well with theoretical calculations. These results pave the way to low-loss infrared mirrors, filters, spectral imaging, and miniaturized spectrometers at infrared region.

    All-chalcogenide variable infrared filter
    (SPIE, 2009) Kondakcı, H. Esat; Köyle, Özlem; Yaman, Mecit; Dana, Aykutlu; Bayındır, Mehmet
    We present the design, fabrication, characterization of spatially variable infrared filter and a demonstration of the filter as a simple infrared spectrometer. A varying photonic band gap filter which consists of thermally evaporated, high refractive index contrast amorphous chalcogenide glass multilayers, makes the structure suitable to be used as spectrometer. Due to graded thickness structure, the filter exhibits a position dependent stop band and a cavity mode ranging from 2 to 8 μm wavelengths. It is demonstrated that the filter can be used to detect absorption peaks of common gases in the cavity mode range of the filter. © 2009 SPIE.
