Zusammenfassung:
The angular behavior of light transmission through opal films over a broad range of wavelengths and angles was investigated. The opal films were prepared using the capillary deposition method (CDM). Many well-defined diffraction peaks were detected and indicate that the CDM results in opal films with high quality. Peaks coinciding at normal incidence split when samples are rotated. The angular shift of these peaks was found to satisfy the kinematical diffraction theory very well. Furthermore, the variation of intensity with incident angle can be interpreted in terms of a simplified dynamical diffraction theory. Moreover, the presence of two differently oriented domains in CDM-made opal films is essential in discussing the measured spectra.
