There has been an increase in research on tuning the optical properties of PCs to design devices. We design organic semiconductor-based PC structures and calculate optical properties using the plane wave expansion method and finite-difference time-domain method in an air background for a hexagonal lattice. We showed the possibility of the solar cell arrays for a 2D PC cavity on an organic semiconductor base infiltrated with a nematic liquid crystal. E7 type has been used as a nematic liquid crystal and 4,4-Bis[4-(diphenylamino) styryl]biphenyl as an organic semiconductor material.EnglishOrganic SemiconductorPhotonic CrystalLiquid CrystalArticle10.1080/09500340.2014.967320
