Block copolymer based photonic band gap materials
A photonic crystal is any material which exhibits a photonic band gap (PBG) and is comprised of a periodic arrangement of alternating layers of different dielectric constant. It has been found recently that an interesting route to approach such materials is via the synthesis of block copolymers whic...
