Abstract

Recently in the field of photonics two new approaches for novel materials appeared. These materials are photonic crystals and metamaterials. In this paper the definition, methods of manufacturing and applications of these novel materials are discussed as well as the potentials of self-organized eutectic micro- and nanostructures for such  optical applications. Examples of eutectic self-organized structures grown by the micro-pulling down method are presented.
