Abstract

Light propagation through the sharp 45° bend coupled cavity waveguide is analyzed theoretically and numerically. We design the waveguide device based on two-dimensional photonic crystal with square lattice. The degenerate defect state is used as a guided mode of the device. In order to control the light propagation through the corner a splitting of the degenerate defect state is used.
