The Physics of Photonic Crystals LEDs — •Claude Weisbuch^1,2 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.
