Efficient light emission by a three-dimensional all-metallic photonic crystal and its energy consequences

Abstract
A review is given on the recent progress in 3D all-metallic photonic-crystals in the near- and mid-infrared wavelengths. Results of optical spectroscopy of the sample will be described. Unique light emission characteristics at a narrow band from the photonic-crystal will also be presented. This new class of 3D all-metallic photonic-crystal is promising for thermal photo-voltaic power generatin and for lighting application.
