Abstract :
Summary form only given. In order to demonstrate demultiplexing phenomena in photonic crystals, we designed a structure in which the coupling between the cavity mode and the guiding mode allows to drop a selective wavelength. The selectivity of dropping wavelength is determined by local properties of the cavity modes.
