Abstract :
Summary form only given. Most of the work on photonic bandgap materials to date has focused on dielectric structures because of their low loss at optical wavelengths. While metals are not suitable for use in this range, they find many applications at microwave frequencies. We believe we have constructed the first 3-D metallic photonic bandgap structure in a geometry resembling covalently bonded diamond.
