  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. We have experimentally demonstrated waveguiding along defect channels in PC films made from low index materials. The waveguiding losses are below 3.5 dB/mm. A proper design of the basic crystal allows for a polarization sensitive transmission of the guides.
