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 recent progresses in photonic-crystal researches including (i) two-dimensional photonic-crystal cavities and waveguides, (ii) three-dimensional photonic crystals, and (iii) two-dimensional photonic-crystal lasers.
