Two types of nanophotonic technologies—two-dimensional photonic crystal (2D PC) slab waveguides (WGs) and quantum dots (QDs)—were developed for key photonic device structures in the future. For an ultrafast digital photonic network, an ultrasmall and ultrafast symmetrical Mach–Zehnder (SMZ)-type all-optical switch (PC-SMZ) and an optical flip–flop device (PC-FF) have been developed. To realize these devices, one method is to develop a selective-area molecular beam epitaxial growth QD technique by employing a metal mask method. Another method is to establish a new design method, i.e., topology optimization of the 2DPC WG with a wide and flat bandwidth, high transmittance, and low reflectivity. We also fabricated an optical microcavity in a photonic crystal slab embedded with GaAs QDs by droplet epitaxy. The Purcell effect on the exciton emission of GaAs QDs was confirmed by microphotoluminescence and lifetime measurements.
