  • Abstract
    High index subwavelength waveguides form a new platform for highly nonlinear photonic devices. This paper reviews the recent progress in the theory of nonlinear pulse propagation in these waveguides and highlights the opportunities that these waveguides have opened up in terms of active photonic devices.
