ABSTRACT:
A three-dimensional photonic crystal operating at a plurality of design wavelengths, in which the photonic band gap can be adjusted to a desired wavelength band without changing the lattice period, and an optical element that can contain a defect resonator or a defect waveguide in the three-dimensional photonic crystal are provided.
