The quest for all-optical signal processing is generally deemed to be impractical because
optical nonlinearities are usually weak. The emerging field of nonlinear photonic crystals …

A new class of composite materials has emerged which provides a means to control and
manipulate light. These materials, known as photonic crystals, are periodic arrays of …

This book provides the reader with the broad range of materials that were discussed in a
series of short courses presented at Georgia Tech on the design, fabrication, and testing of …

Nanotechnology, science, and engineering spearhead the 21st century revolution that is
leading to fundamental breakthroughs in the way materials, devices, and systems are …

Topological on-chip photonics based on tailored photonic crystals (PhCs) that emulate
quantum valley-Hall effects has recently gained widespread interest owing to its promise of …

We show that three-dimensional micro-optical components can be embedded in a
photosensitive glass by a femtosecond (fs) laser. After exposure to the tightly focused fs …

Planar photonic crystal waveguide structures have been modelled using the finite-difference-
time-domain method and perfectly matched layers have been employed as boundary …

Optically coupled lasers are a striking example of a class of self-organized nonlinear
dynamic systems which are currently attracting much interest. From a practical standpoint …

We investigate the efficiency of transmission through photonic crystal Y junctions and show
the importance of matching mode symmetries. Furthermore, we show that by adding tuning …
