  • Abstract
    Utilizing the parameters of two-dimensional photonic crystals fabricated in chalcogenide-glass slab waveguides and photopolymers we study numerically the self-collimation effect in low-index photonic crystals and suggest a novel type of beam splitter based on the beam self-collimation.
