Discrete negative refraction in photonic crystal waveguide arrays

Opt Lett. 2006 May 1;31(9):1343-5. doi: 10.1364/ol.31.001343.

Abstract

We report a systematic analysis of anomalous refractive effects at interfaces between two photonic crystal waveguide arrays. Discrete negative refraction can be easily predicted from the sign of the coupling coefficient between adjacent waveguides, regardless of handedness of propagation.
