While the light transmission of photonic crystals is characterized by the photonic band gap, the one of disordered photonic structures is typified by a multiplicity of transmission depths. The total transmission over a range of wavelengths is related to the width of such range, but also to the type of disorder. Less homogeneous disordered structures transmit more light than the ordered counterpart regardless of the wavelengths range width. More homogeneous disordered structures transmit more light than the ordered counterpart only above a certain value of the width. We studied this behaviour with a statistical analysis over 5000 permutations of structures for six wavelength widths and for two different homogeneity degrees (Shannon-Wiener index).

Abstract
While the light transmission of photonic crystals is characterized by the photonic band gap, the one of disordered photonic structures is typified by a multiplicity of transmission depths. The total transmission over a range of wavelengths is related to the width of such range, but also to the type of disorder. Less homogeneous disordered structures transmit more light than the ordered counterpart regardless of the wavelengths range width. More homogeneous disordered structures transmit more light than the ordered counterpart only above a certain value of the width. We studied this behaviour with a statistical analysis over 5000 permutations of structures for six wavelength widths and for two different homogeneity degrees (Shannon-Wiener index).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
