Abstract :
Irregular wavelength-scale transformation structures offer potential for wavelength division multiplexing and laser mode control. A microwave waveguide experiment demonstrates for the first time wavelength-dependent mode conversion. Optical realization using silicon processing is facilitated by lift-off.
