Fabrication of 3D Photonic Crystals toward Arbitrary Manipulation of Photons in Three Dimensions

The creation of large-area, unintentional-defect-free three-dimensional (3D) photonic crystals in the optical regime is a key challenge toward the realization of the arbitrary 3D manipulation of photons. In this article, we discuss an advanced fabrication method of 3D silicon photonic crystals based...
