Abstract:

The fabrication of three-dimensional photonic crystal structures with sub-micron periodicity was performed by holographic lithography. The photonic crystals of titanium dioxide and polymeric materials were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and optical diffraction measurements. The interference pattern generated at the intersection of four beams from a neodymium laser was employed for the exposure of the photoresist.

Abstract:

We have observed an infrared spectrum within the X 3Σ− state of DCl2+ using a fast-ion-beam/laser-beam spectrometer. A preliminary analysis shows good agreement with the rotational constants and tunneling lifetimes calculated by Bennett and McNab for the ν=1–2 vibrational band, although the calculated band origin appear to be in error by 21.1 cm−1.
