Abstract

In this paper, an alternative strategy is presented that uses photonic bandgap (PBG) resonances to simultaneously increase the transmission of a given thickness of metal and enhance its effective nonlinear refractive index. Numerical, it is demonstrated that a PBG structure consisting of alternating metal and (linear) dielectric layers can impart a much larger nonlinear phase shift to a beam of light than a bulk sample containing the same thickness of metal.
