Abstract :
Finite volume scheme on unstructured meshes is applied to evaluation of optical properties of photonic crystal waveguides with a bend. Reflection and transmission coefficients are studied for a range of frequencies inside the photonic crystal bandgap for different bend configurations. Frequencies and configurations for which there is zero reflection are found.
