The Physics of Photonic Crystals LEDs — •Claude Weisbuch1,2 and Elison Matioli1 — 1Laboratoire de Physique de la Matière Condensée, CNRS, Ecole Polytechnique, Palaiseau, France — 2Materials Department, UCSB, Santa Barbara, CA, USA
Photonic crystal (PhC) based Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) display a rare blend of fundamental and applied concepts in solid state and semiconductor physics. Their remarkable properties rely on a mix of intrinsic materials properties and of electromagnetic properties of the PhC. Detailed understanding of PhC LED concepts can be obtained from studies of physics in and of devices.
