Abstract
During the past several years the study of light propagation in photonic crystals has attracted a steadily growing interest. Here we evaluate the potential of low index contrast photonic crystals realized in film waveguides and fibers. Based on the characterization of these structures (attenuation, mode profiles and dispersion) we discuss various applications in ultrafast optics.
