Subwavelength structured waveguides provide tailorable optical properties that can be leveraged to overcome bandwidth limitations in a wide range of photonic devices. In this invited talk, we present an overview of recent developments on subwavelength engineered building blocks, including phase shifters, mode multiplexers, polarization beam splitters and zero-birefringence waveguides.
