Recently developed subwavelength structures in silicon waveguides are presented. Subwavelength grating waveguides are discussed along with practical components that exploit the principle of subwavelength refractive index engineering, including fiber-chip grating couplers (<1dB coupling loss), waveguide crossings (-0.02dB loss), a polarization converter (-16 dB extinction ratio), a waveguide multiplexer (crosstalk -35 dB), and a Terahertz optical switch.
