摘要
Negative refraction is demonstrated in one-dimensional (1D) dielectric photonic crystals (PCs) at microwave frequencies. Focusing by plano-concave lens made of 1D PCs due to negative refraction is also demonstrated. The frequency-dependent negative refractive indices, calculated from the experimental data, match very well with those determined from band structure calculations. The easy fabrication of one-dimensional photonic crystals may open the door for future applications. (c) 2006 American Institute of Physics.
