State-of-the-art nanophotonic devices based on semiconductor technology use total internal reflection or the photonic bandgap effect to reduce the waveguide core dimensions down to hundreds of nanometers, ensuring strong optical confinement within the scal ...
The main topic of this thesis is the fabrication and characterization of structures smaller than the wavelength of light, for operation in the visible or near infrared spectral range. In the first part of this thesis, the fabrication of periodic structures ...
Photonic crystals (PhC) are periodically structured electromagnetic media, in which light within some frequency ranges cannot propagate through the structure. Such frequency ranges are commonly referred as photonic band gaps (PBG). The length scale of the ...
Coupling into the Bloch modes of a two-dimensional photonic crystal (PhC) field is investigated by Fourier optics. The PhC was designed to operate in the second band above the air-light line, close to the autocollimation regime for TE polarization. The sam ...
Photonic crystals are stuctures in which the refractive index varies periodically on the wavelength scale in one, two or three dimensions. Due to interference effects, these structures can forbid light propagation over a large spectral range called "the ph ...
We experimentally investigate the effect of residual disorder on the dispersion curve of light near a band edge. A Fourier space imaging technique accurately distinguishes the propagating regime from evanescent regime in planar photonic crystal. (C) 2009 O ...

We use a Fourier-space imaging technique relying on outcoupling grating probes to study the coupled mode interaction and dispersion properties of guided modes in silicon-on-insulator codirectional couplers. Our approach allows us to measure the mode splitt ...
The optical study of single quantum dashes located inside a 2.5D photonic crystal structure is performed. The enhancement of the emission is observed for quantum dash in resonance with a slow Bloch mode. ...

This study gives a full treatment of the network characterisation of multi-port planar circuits embedded in shielded stratified media with an integrated approach to lumped ports and wave ports. The details of the mathematical formulation for the retrieval ...
A complete control of the coupling between the modes of two photonic crystal microcavities is obtained by using a combination of several local tuning techniques. By a local and controlled modification of one cavity we are able to bring into resonance modes ...
