Abstract
Summarizes the development of tunable photonic crystal structures for a variety of applications within the Nano Sensors Group at the University of Illinois. The author focuses on the design, fabrication, and application of large, plastic-based photonic crystal slabs for label-free biosensing, fluorescence enhancement, mechanical strain sensors, and tunable reflectors for laser modulation.
