Abstr act Coupled cavity waveguides (CCWs), also called coupled-resonator optical waveguides (CROWs), are special optical components in photonic crystals (PCs). In general, they consisit of a sequence of strongly localized point defects or cavities. Different from the conventional waveguide in which light propagates through total internal reflection, CROWs provide a mechanism making photons propagate by hopping through strongly localized defect cavities due to coupling between adjacent cavity modes, which can be realized the large oiptical field amplitude in the defect cavities and the low group velocity at the band edge of the PCs. The special transmission properties of CROWs, in pulse compression, optical delay lines, enhancement of second-harmonic generation, all optical communications, promise a bright future, especially for many other applications in which reduced group velocity plays a critical role. Coupled cavities structure are the hot study field rescent years, but most focus in periodic PCs. In this paper, the important study is the transmission properties of coupled cavities structure in quasiperiodic photonic crystals (QPCs), QPCs do not possess translational symmetry, but they have a highly rotational symmetry and self-similarity properties, the special structure characteristics of the QPCs make the CROWs in QPCs possesing more important specialities. In this paper, octagonal QPC is the basic cell of the CROWs. Firstly, we have prposed the straight CROWs and the out-toward straight CROWs, then the structure parameters are optimizated And then using the finite difference time- domain (FDTD) method on computer simulates the transmission spectrum of the single cavity, double cavities and five cavities, the corresponding waveguide frequencies are found and the distribution of the electrical field are given. We analyse the coupling constant, the dispersion relationship and the group velocity of the two straight coupled cavities structure designed with the
