  • Abstract
    Using a novel technique for deep vertical etching of PET, a two-dimensional photonic crystal slab is fabricated. Vertical confinement is obtained using both specular and total reflection. The technique can achieve dimensions required for realization of two-dimensional photonic crystals at infrared and terahertz frequencies.
