Description:
This microscopic photonic
crystal uses a pattern of holes to sort a single lightwave into seven
wave- lengths, or colors. Light enters a solid strip that is bordered
by holes of various sizes that block certain wavelength ranges. After
filtering through the holes, the light exits the device as seven separate
wavelengths. |
