Measurement of the profiles of disorder-induced localized resonances in photonic crystal waveguides by local tuning

J. Lian, S. Sokolov, E. Yüce +4

Near the band edge of photonic crystal waveguides, localized modes appear due to disorder. We demonstrate a new method to elucidate spatial profile of the localized modes in such s…

Dispersion of coupled mode-gap cavities

Jin Lian, Sergei Sokolov, Emre Yüce +3

The dispersion of a CROW made of photonic crystal mode-gap cavities is pronouncedly asymmetric. This asymmetry cannot be explained by the standard tight binding model. We show that…
