Abstract

Pb0.56Sr0.44Zr0.52Ti0.48O3 (PSZT) inverse opal photonic crystals (PCs) have been synthesized by a process of self-assembly in combination with a sol–gel procedure. PSZT inverse opals show pure perovskite structure with good orders in three dimensions. The evident photonic band gaps have been observed in the transmittance spectra with a blue-shift phenomenon due to the decrease of opal template periods. PSZT inverse opals also exhibit the reflection peaks in basic agreement with the calculated results. This three-dimensional (3D) ordered PSZT inverse opals have shown interesting optical characteristics and potential applications in optoelectronic and photonic devices.
