Abstract: | The mechanisms of formation of Bragg reflectance and transmittance spectra have been investigated for films of three-dimensional
opal-like photonic crystals. Attention has been drawn to the fact that the spectra exhibit an additional short-period interference
structure of the novel type due to the multiple Bragg diffraction of light. The spectra have been calculated in the framework
of the dynamical three-wave diffraction model taking into account strong spatial modulation of the dielectric function. It
has been found that short-period oscillations appear in the spectra due to the spatial quantization of additional modes with
a low group velocity. |
