  • Materials Science
  • Photonics
  • Nanotechnology

Background:

  • Photonic crystals are promising metamaterials for controlling light.
  • Biological structures offer large band gaps but are difficult to synthesize.
  • Developing new structures from stable double-network systems is challenging.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the potential of shifted double-diamond titania scaffolds for photonic applications.

  • Fabrication of titania scaffolds using a reverse core-shell microphase-templating system.
  • Utilizing amphiphilic diblock copolymers and titania precursors in a THF/water mixture.

Main Results:

  • Theoretically predicted a complete band gap in the shifted double-diamond titania scaffold.
  • Optimized structure achieved a maximum theoretical band gap of 7.71% with a dielectric contrast of 6.25.
  • Fabricated titania scaffolds exhibited experimental band gaps ranging from 2.05% to 3.78%.

Conclusions:

  • The shifted double-diamond titania scaffold is a viable candidate for creating photonic crystals with complete band gaps.
