Abstract

We report on characterisation of optical modes in InP microcavities formed by two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystals (PC) on a suspended membrane. Diffracted photoluminescence (PL) experiments and numerical calculations are associated in order to analyse the properties of PC microresonators and waveguides and to investigate the coupling between these two building blocks of PC based photonic integrated circuits.
