Abstract

We propose a novel photonic crystal waveguide design with defects at the termination to provoke directional emission. Because the resulting optical field distribution at the waveguide exit resembles a triple point source, the light can emit with low angular divergence. This phenomenon appears both in photonic crystal structures formed by dielectric rods as well as by air holes.
