Abstract :
Summary form only given. The use of deep etch is necessary to build efficient near-infrared 2D photonic crystals and is still limiting part of their fabrication. Recent theoretical studies have once again underlined the need for deeper etch during 2D photonic crystal fabrication (Benisty et al, 2000). The scope of this presentation is limited to the near-IR photonic crystals fabricated in silicon. The silicon microstructuring technology benefits from the long history of microelectronics and is still in advance on that of III-Vs
