On the Interaction of the Deformation and Photonic Self-Organizations in Condensed Media: Overview

详细

The experimental data on the mass transfer in condensed media under the action of mechanical stress and light pressure are presented. In both cases, the observed formation of periodic structures is interpreted from the point of view of the dynamical principle of minimum entropy production. The prospects of using the discovered self-organizing processes for the formation of photonic crystals and optical metamaterials are discussed.
