31. The scattering process that is associated with this spatially inhomogeneous emission occurs mainly at the nonideal row of holes bordering the line defect.
32. The images in Fig. 3 are typical illustrations of light transport independent of the material used (silicon or indium phosphide waveguide) or technology (e-beam lithography or deep UV lithography), as we know from our several previous experiments.

36. In the angular spectrum C, the small line at positive k is not related to the back reflection as confirmed by its slope on the 2D map of the angular spectrum.
