  • Abstract
    We present measurements and modeling of collimating surface states in slow-light photonic crystal superlattices consisting of alternating dispersive and homogeneous media. Superlattice periodicity allows evanescent-wave resonant coupling to surface photon bound states, supporting collimation.
