Abstrakt: Supercollimation is the propagation of light without diffraction using the properties of photonic crystals. We present the first experimental demonstration of supercollimation in a planar photonic crystal composed of nanoscale rods. Supercollimation was observed over distances of up to 1000 lattice periods. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
