Subwavelength nanophotonics: From a new waveguide principle to practical components at telecom wavelengths
Abstract
We report on a new waveguide principle using subwavelength gratings. It is known that diffraction effects are suppressed for waves propagating in materials structured at the subwavelength scale. Subwavelength gratings can create artificial media engineered using microscopic inhomogeneities to enact effective macroscopic behaviour. For the high-index-contrast waveguides, a subwavelength grating can be created by the combination of …
