Amorphous chalcogenide structures are proposed for designing meta-materials as e.g. photonic crystals with stop gaps in the far infrared and microwave range. Micrometer diameter lenslets made of As2S3 glass are used to this purpose. Special heat treatment is proposed to get a shrinkage of the structure built from stacks of lenslets, and creating a modulated woodpile configuration based on the photo-fluidity effect in arsenic sulphide chalcogenides. The simple procedure allows the tuning of the lattice parameter in order to reach the desired optical or microwave properties of the photonic crystal with stop band gaps.

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
