3D control of light can be realized, at the wavelength scale, in photonic integrated circuits. The building block used in this study is the photonic crystal slab, which enables an in-plane as well as out-of-plane control of light, thanks to its peculiar dispersion properties. Especially at the gamma point of the dispersion curve, slow Bloch modes can be used to realize vertical emitting devices. In this study, we focus on photonic crystals based on micropillar lattices, as an alternative to classical hole lattices. Besides, micropillar lattices can be seen as a new platform for sensing applications and microfluidic circuits. Indeed, fluids can flow through the micropillar. First, we will describe some devices which operate at Gamma point. W...
