Yablonovite
Encyclopedia
Yablonovite is a photonic crystal
structure that has an inverse cylindrical holes arranged in a diamond lattice. It was the first 3D photonic crystal
to be fabricated with a complete photonic bandgap. It was created in 1991 by Eli Yablonovitch
and his team.
The structure that Yablonvitch was able to produce involved drilling a triangular array cylindrical holes holes in layers of transparent material, where the holes of each layer are placed on top of the remaining material in the layer below, the structure repeats every 4 layers, and was modeled after an inverse diamond structure.

Photonic crystals are periodic optical nanostructures that are designed to affect the motion of photons in a similar way that periodicity of a semiconductor crystal affects the motion of electrons...

Eli Yablonovitch along with Sajeev John, was one of the two applied physicists who invented the field of photonic crystals in 1987. He and his team were the first to create a 3-dimension structure that exhibited a full photonic bandgap, it is called Yablonovite...
