This paper reviews recent work regarding the nonlinear optical properties of high refractive index contrast (HRIC) periodic structures; photonic crystals formed in semiconductor hosts. After summarizing the generic impact of HRIC periodic texture on nonlinear optical responses, examples are provided from recent theoretical and experimental works on second harmonic generation and optical bistability in semiconductor-based planar photonic crystals and photonic crystal microcavities coupled to single-mode waveguides.
