Abstract

This paper reports on the synthesis of glassy nanostructures in which the framework is a face-centered cubic lattice of inverse yablonovite with a disordered glassy superstructure. The synthesis has been performed by the direct laser writing method based on two-photon polymerization of a photosensitive material. The fabricated structures have been investigated using scanning electron microscopy. A theoretical calculation of the photonic band structures of the direct yablonovite and the inverse yablonovite has been carried out.
