Abstract
We demonstrate experimentally the tuning of complete photonic band gaps in patterned silicon nitride waveguides. Transmission measurements were performed using an ultrabroadband high-brightness white light laser continuum, extracting extinction ratios as low as in the gap regions. Angle-resolved measurements show the perfect alignment of the gap around the direction.
