  • Abstract
    In this paper, we have employed a collection scanning near-field optical microscope (SNOM) for imaging of the propagation of light at telecommunication wavelengths along straight and bent photonic crystal (PC) waveguides with Y-splitters, Z-bends and simple couplers that were fabricated on silicon-on-insulator (SOl) wafers
