Various bending waveguides with different bending angles in photonic crystal are proposed and studied. Analyses show that the bending waveguides can provide a high transmission for the whole frequencies within the photonic band gap. Numerical simulations confirm that high transmissions over 98.5% can be achieved for the proposed waveguides.
