Abstract
We present a systematic method for the design of tunable directional couplers and arrayed waveguide couplers in photonic crystals. Two methods for controlling the coupling length are proposed. Bending of coupled waveguide is considered and optimum frequency of operation to get efficient waveguide coupling and bending is presented.
