Supporting substrates for Si rod-type photonic crystals (PCs) are investigated for realizing highly wavelength-selective near-infrared thermal emitters. Three materials-SiO2, Al2O3, and MgO-are considered for their low infrared emission (transparency) and remarkable heat resistance. Theoretical calculations of the emissivity spectra of Si-rod PCs (rod height = 500 nm, rod diameter = 300 nm, and lattice constant = 600 nm) on 50 mu m-thick supporting substrates at 1400 K indicate that the long-wavelength (>3 mu m) emission power from the emitter using MgO is less than 1/10 of that of the other two materials. Fabrication of the Si-rod PCs on the 50 lm-thick MgO substrate requires the insertion of a thin (30 nm) HfO2 film between MgO and Si to improve the stability at high temperatures (>1400 K). Experimental results of the fabricated structure show that at 1400 K, the ratio of emissive power at wavelengths<1.8 mu m to the total emissive power is 34% and that this can be increased to over 53% in an optimized rod-array structure with a 10 mu m-thick MgO substrate.
