Abstract

In this paper, plane-mirror Fabry-Perot resonators filled by photonic crystals, i.e., with periodic intracavity refraction index modulation is investigated experimentally and theoretically. In order to achieve the effect of 2D intracavity index modulation the phase diffraction gratings were fabricated on the surfaces of the mirrors. The diffraction properties of such resonators can be manipulated, resulting in sub - and superdiffractive dynamics of light in the resonator, and in hyperbolic angular transmission profiles.
