Planar photonic chips with tailored angular transmission for high-contrast-imaging devices

The authors design a planar photonic chip with several multilayers of photonic band gaps and a region of dielectric nanoparticles for tailored angular transmission. They use it as sample substrate for high-contrast darkfield and total internal reflection microscopy on a conventional microscope.
