Planar photonic crystal waveguides and devices may offer the possibility to build photonic circuits with greater density and new functionality compared to existing waveguide devices that are based on the control of light by refraction. The primary vehicles for this research are the study of microcavity lasers as a path to understanding new functionality, and the propagation of light around sharp bends as the path to increasing the packing density of planar optical circuits. In this paper we report our results on the successful demonstration of coupling and guiding of light in a planar photonic circuit incorporating sharp bends.
