Abstract

The rugate porous silicons containing multiple photonic band gaps have been generated by applying a composite waveform summed three computer-generated pseudo-sinusoidal current waveforms and exhibit three sharp photonic band gaps in the optical reflectivity spectrum. Generated multiple rugate porous silicons display three rugate peaks corresponding to the each of the sine components varied from 0.42, 0.36, and 0.30 Hz, with a spacing of 0.06 Hz between each sine component. The resulting rugate PSi films have been removed from the silicon substrate by applying an lift-off current and are then made into particles by ultrasono-method in a organic solution. The sensing experiments using these particles for organic solvents such as toluene, hexane, acetone, and methanol have been achieved. Condensing of organic vapors in the pores increases the refractive indices of entire particle which results a red shift in the photonic peaks.
