Research of broadband, wide angular spectrum and polarization insensitivity reflectors used in visible and near-infrared spectral regions is one of the hot spots in the current field of photonic integrated circuits and optoelectronic devices. Based on the refractive index adjustment and birefringence of sculptured thin films, a new combined structure with sculptured thin films and sub-wavelength high-contrast grating is put forward in the project. The new reflector has excellent features of broadband, wide angular spectrum and polarization insensitivity. The main research aspects will include: research on the transmission mechanism of light in the structure and the combination mechanism of the sculptured thin films and the sub-wavelength high-contrast grating; research on the quantitative relations between the combined structure and its optical properties, and the optimal design of the broadband, wide angular spectrum, polarization insensitivity reflector; research on the preparation processes and the post-treatment of the reflector based on sculptured thin films. The innovative design for preparing the sub-wavelength high-contrast grating by using sculptured thin films improves phase-modulated performance to achieve broadband, wide angular spectrum and polarization insensitivity reflector. With the advantage of simple structure, easy to fabricate, the new sub-wavelength high-contrast grating reflector based on sculptured thin films is expected to promote the applications of new broadband grating reflectors in the optoelectronic system. And the new reflector has an extensive value of scientific research for the new sculptured thin film photoelectron devices.
