Wide-Angle Absorption Based on Angle-Insensitive Light Slowing Effect in Photonic Crystal Containing Hyperbolic Metamaterials

Light-slowing effect at band edges in photonic crystals (PCs) is widely utilized to enhance optical absorption. However, according to the Bragg scattering theory, photonic bandgaps (PBGs) in traditional all-dielectric one-dimensional (1-D) PCs shift towards shorter wavelengths as the incident angle...
