Abstract

We consider two equations for the filling factor estimation of infiltrated zinc oxide (ZnO) in silica (SiO2) opal and gallium nitride in ZnO opal. The first equation is based on the effective medium approximation, while the second one - on Maxwell-Garnett approximation. The comparison between two filling factors shows that both equations can be equally used for the estimation of the quantity of infiltrated nanocrystals inside opal matrix.
