Comprehensive reflectivity mapping of the angular dispersion of nanostructured arrays
comprising of inverted pyramidal pits is demonstrated. By comparing equivalently structured …

High quality factor (Q≈ 3.4× 10^ 6) microdisk resonators are demonstrated in a Si_3N_4 on
SiO_2 platform at 652–660 nm with integrated in-plane coupling waveguides. Critical …

Air-bridged photonic crystal slabs are demonstrated at visible and near-infrared
wavelengths. We present experimental and theoretical studies of the transmission spectra of …

We propose a novel compact wavelength demultiplexer, for which two functions arising from
the anomalous dispersion characteristics of photonic crystals are combined. One is the …

We demonstrate the feasibility of forming a compact integrated photonic spectrometer for
operation in the visible wavelength range using the dispersive properties of a planar …

We report experimental evidence of spatial filtering of light beams by three-dimensional, low-
refraction-index-contrast photonic crystals. The photonic crystals were fabricated in a glass …

A first experimental demonstration of a planar superprism in silicon microphotonics
technology using silicon on insulator (SOI) substrates is presented. Experimental results for …

The inside cover illustrates the highly dispersive propagation of light in a three‐dimensional
polymer photonic crystal. White light is coupled into a woodpile structure and split into its …

We analyze light-wave dynamics in artificial materials characterized by periodically
modulated gain or loss on the wavelength scale. The study of the temporal dispersion in one …
