Abstract :
Photonic crystals, in which the refractive index changes periodically, provide an exciting tool for the manipulation of photons and have made substantial progresses in recent years. In this presentation, I will discuss two new trends in photonic crystals: (i) Dynamic control of photonic crystals and (ii) Novel two-dimensional photonic-crystal lasers, after the overview of the photonic crystal research.
