Straight and curved waveguides in 2D photonic crystals with wide transmission bands were realized using coupled high-Q L2 nanocavities. A channel drop filter was created by combining two coupled curved nanocavities and an H0 nanocavity.
Performance of slow-light coupled-resonator optical waveguides (CROW) in a photonic crystal was analysed, and found to be limited by disorder-induced localisation. Localised modes were directly measured through out-of-plane loss.
