The art of microphotonics consists in confining photons, in one or more directions, in structures having dimensions about the wavelength, and doing this for the longest possible duration. The objective is then to associate these microstructures in order to carry out a photonic integration allowing data processing in very compact systems and using low optical powers. Photonic crystals have largely showed these last years their capacity to achieve these goals.
L'art de la microphotonique consiste à confiner les photons, selon une ou plusieurs directions, dans des structures ayant des dimensions de l'ordre de la longueur d'onde et ceci, pour une durée la plus longue possible. L'objectif est alors d'associer ces microstructures afin de réaliser une intégration photonique permettant le traitement de l'information dans des systèmes de faible encombrement en utilisant de faibles puissances optiques. Les cristaux photoniques ont largement démontré ces dernières années leur capacité à atteindre ces objectifs.
