Abstract
We report the infrared operation of a two-dimensional photonic crystal waveguide fabricated in silicon. Measurements of the transmission spectrum reveal a large transmission bandwidth within the bulk-crystal photonic bandgap and a rich resonance structure. The calculated transmission spectrum for this structure is in good agreement with the measured spectrum and predicts a 10% single-mode bandwidth for the waveguide.
