    Quasimetallic silicon micromachined photonic crystals
    (American Institute of Physics, 2001) Temelkuran, B.; Bayındır, Mehmet; Özbay, Ekmel; Kavanaugh, J. P.; Sigalas, M. M.; Tuttle, G.
    We report on fabrication of a layer-by-layer photonic crystal using highly doped silicon wafers processed by semiconductor micromachining techniques. The crystals, built using (100) silicon wafers, resulted in an upper stop band edge at 100 GHz. The transmission and defect characteristics of these structures were found to be analogous to metallic photonic crystals. We also investigated the effect of doping concentration on the defect characteristics. The experimental results agree well with predictions of the transfer matrix method simulations.
