    "abstract": "The spectral dependence of a bending loss of cascaded 60-degree bends in\nphotonic crystal (PhC) waveguides is explored in a slab-type\nsilicon-on-insulator system. Ultra-low bending loss of (0.05+/-0.03)dB/bend is\nmeasured at wavelengths corresponding to the nearly dispersionless transmission\nregime. In contrast, the PhC bend is found to become completely opaque for\nwavelengths range corresponding to the slow light regime. A general strategy is\npresented and experimentally verified to optimize the bend design for improved\nslow light transmission.",
