Abstract :
Within the last decade 2-dimensional crystal waveguides have emerged as a new and highly interesting group of photonic components based on the original theoretical inspiration from photonic band-gap materials, new breakthroughs in design methods, and great improvements in fabrication technologies. This paper describes design methods, component realizations and applications for photonic crystal waveguide components
