By coating patterned and aligned ZnO nanorod arrays with TiO 2 , a bottom–up process is used to fabricate a 2D photonic crystal (PC). The as‐synthesized 2D PC slab shows a highly ordered air‐hole array (see Figure) and exhibits a photonic bandgap that agrees reasonably well with the theoretically calculated value.
