摘要
By utilizing a vector network analyzer, the field distributions on the surface of a three-dimensional woodpile photonic crystal with a straight waveguide or a bend waveguide buried under the surface were measured in the microwave regime. The information of field profile and propagation characteristics of the guided modes can be successfully extracted from the surface near- field measurement. This work indicates that the near-field detection can become a promising means for experimental characterization of three- dimensional photonic crystal devices in supplement to the usual transmission spectrum measurement.
