Pillar-array Based Two-dimensional Photonic Crystal Cavities: A New Paradigm for Optical Sensing

Pillar-array based optical cavities have unique properties, e.g., having a large and connected low dielectric index space (normally air space), exhibiting a large band gap for transverse magnetic modes, having a large percent of electric field energy in air and standing on a substrate. These propert...
