Abstract
A waveguide coupler is designed and realized in a three-dimensional woodpile photonic crystal at microwave regime. This waveguide coupler shows good energy transfer property, which is confirmed through measurement of transmission spectrum, internal field distribution and surface field distribution using Agilent microwave network analyzer.
