Nanostructured one-and three-dimensional magnetophotonic crystals based on porous silicon and artificial opals
Nanostructured one-and three-dimensional magnetophotonic crystals are produced by infiltration of yttrium-iron garnet with bismuth into photonic crystals based on porous silicon and artificial opals. The magnetic properties of the resulting structures are studied by generation of the magnetically induced second harmonics. The magnetic contrast of the second harmonics intensity in the spectral region of the photonic gap edge of the photonic crystal is 10–15%.
