A novel recording material of holographic fabrication for photonic crystal was proposed. The material is home-made water-resisting photopolymer. Using green laser as the laser source, its performance parameters were simply measured. After testing, its diffraction efficiencies could reach 85%, and its absolution is high with the wavelength of 514.5 nm. Besides, the later development is simple, only heating. Holographic fabrication of photonic crystal was also simply simulated by Matlab software. The results indicate that the more beams interfere, the more complex photonic structures of photonic crystal are. And the simple light paths for fabricating 2-D and 3-D photonic crystal were designed. The light splitting elements are a mask and a top-cut prism. The experimental results indicate 2-D and 3-D photonic crystal with large-area, bulk-mass, high temperature resistance and high-strength can be fabricated using water-resisting photopolymer. It has the same photonic structures with matlab simulation. And the setup of the path is an important factor when the material is home-made water-resisting photopolymer.
