Abstract :
By engineering a cavity inside a photonic crystal we present a systematic method to engineer the dispersion of a coupled resonator optical waveguide (CROW). By designing a single mode cavity, we demonstrate the design and dispersion control of a single mode CROW in the photonic band gap (PBG).
