            Abstract : 
In the present paper, fabrication of a silicon-based two-dimensional photonic crystal based on electron beam lithography (EBL) and reactive ion etching (RIE) was demonstrated. In addition the structural color of fabricated crystal was obtained with a simple experimental setup consisted of a light source and a digital camera. From the result, the structural color of PhCs was underlying on the concept of reflection grating.
