Different experimental strategies towards the 3-dimensional photonic crystals operating at optical wavelength are classified. The detailed discussion is devoted to the recent progress in photonic crystals fabricated by template method — the photonic band gap materials on the base of opal. The control of photonic properties of opal-based gratings is achieved through impregnating the opal with high refractive index semiconductors and dielectrics. Experimental study demonstrated the dependence of the stop band behaviour upon the type of impregnation (complete or partial) and showed a way for approaching complete photonic band gap. The photoluminescence from opal- semiconductor gratings revealed suppression of spontaneous emission in the gap region with following enhancement of the emission efficiency at the low-energy edge of the gap.

Photonic crystals based on titanium oxide are promising for optoelectronic applications, for example as components of solar cells and photodetectors. These materials attract great research attention because of the high refractive index of TiO2. One of the promising routes to prepare photonic crystals based on titanium oxide is titanium anodizing at periodically changing voltage or current. However, precise control of the photonic band gap position in anodic titania films is a challenge. To solve this problem, systematic data on the effective refractive index of the porous anodic titanium oxide are required. In this research, we determine quantitatively the dependence of the effective refractive index of porous anodic titanium oxide on the anodizing regime and develop a model which allows one to predict and, therefore, control photonic band gap position in the visible spectrum range with an accuracy better than 98.5%. The prospects of anodic titania photonic crystals implementation as refractive index sensors are demonstrated.

Three-dimensional photonic crystals with a diamond structure, which are composed of the TiO2-based ceramic particles dispersed in an epoxy lattice, were fabricated by stereolithography. The diamond structure showed a photonic band gap in the 14.3–17.0 GHz range along the Γ-K 〈110〉 direction, which is close to the band calculation using the plain wave expansion method. Two types of lattice defects—air cavity and dielectric cavity—were introduced into the diamond structure by removing a unit cell of diamond structure or inserting a block of the lattice medium into the air cavity. The transmission of millimeter waves affected by multiple reflections at the defects was measured in the photonic band gap. Resonant frequencies in the defects were calculated and compared with the measurement results.
