We fabricate 2D–3D photonic crystal heterostructures based on the silicon [001]-diamond:1 square spiral geometry using glancing angle deposition. We compare the normal incidence reflection properties of the fabricated 2D–3D heterostructures to simulated spectra generated using finite-difference time-domain calculations. Reflection peaks are observed, resulting from the presence of a photonic band gap, and defect modes are created by the 2D layer. Deterioration of the reflectance peaks with increased number of vertical spiral periods is observed. A series of square spiral structures are fabricated with a varying number of vertical periods to quantify the degradation of reflection peaks. At normal light incidence, a maximum reflection peak is observed from the film with three vertical periods. Beyond three spiral rotations, deterioration of the substrate-plane periodicity causes scattering losses.
