  • Abstract
    Recently, photonic crystals have enabled a variety of ultrasmall photonic devices with extremely small energy consumption of ~fJ/bit level, suggesting that we can integrate a vast number of nanophotonic devices in a single chip. This technology may give us a way to introduce high-speed integrated photonics in an information processing chip, which will be crucial in future ICT.
