Modeling of disorder effects and optical extinction in three-dimensional photonic crystals

We present three different methods for the modeling of disorder effects in three-dimensional photonic crystals. In order to reproduce experimental results, we apply a method based on a statistical distribution of sphere sizes and vacancy density in a colloidal crystal slab. The other two methods con...
