**A straightforward synthetic route to produce colloidal photonic crystals** containing dielectric planar defects of controlled thickness (see Figure) is presented. Allowed states that arise within the stop band as a result of this doping greatly modify the reflectance properties of the crystals, in

the second harmonic (527 nm) of a Nd:YLF laser operating at 100 MHz. The dye laser contained a single plate birefringent filter tuned to produce laser oscillation at 610 nm and a pulse width of approximately 1 ps full width at half maximum (FWHM). The dye laser was cavity-dumped at 1 MHz, and then f
## Abstract This paper presents an experimental demonstration of the origin of the Photonic bandgap, using a planar dielectric substrate with a 1D finite array of rectangular holes. A microstrip of uniform width placed above the array shows a periodic variation of impedance and refractive index. Th
