Magnetophotonic crystals—a novel magneto-optic material with artificial periodic structures†
Abstract
When the constitutive materials of photonic crystals (PCs) are magnetic, or even only a defect in PCs is magnetic, the resultant PCs exhibit very unique optical and magneto-optical (MO) properties. They are called magnetophotonic crystals (MPCs) providing the spin-dependent nature in PCs. The strong
