  • Abstract
    Photonic crystals and silicon photonics have dramatically reduced the size of photonic devices to a micron scale and added unique functionalities such as slow light and negative refraction. They will increase the feasibility of large scale photonic integration if lll-V devices are smartly combined with Si platform. This presentation discusses their current status and effective choice of photonic nanostructures in each photonic device.
