Slow light [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physics, 2000
We present a brief classical discussion of a process to reduce the group velocity of an electromagnetic pulse by many orders of magnitude.

High coupling efficiency to a low dispersion slow light-supporting photonic crystal waveguide [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the European Optical Society-Rapid Publications, 2013
In this paper, we design a waveguide on photonic crystal slab for propagation of low-dispersion slow light. By shifting the air holes adjacent to the waveguide, we obtain a photonic crystal waveguide with a group index of 25 in 25 nm bandwidth which ...

Photonic Free-Electron Lasers

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2012
A photonic free-electron laser (pFEL) produces coherent Cerenkov radiation from a set of parallel electron beams streaming through a photonic crystal. The function of the crystal is to slow down the phase velocity of a copropagating electromagnetic wave,

Tunable and high quality factor Fano and toroidal dipole resonances in terahertz superconducting metamaterials

open access: yesMaterials Research Express, 2020
We experimentally studied a series of terahertz (THz) metamaterials with asymmetric resonator structures made from superconducting niobium nitride or gold films.

High Figure of Merit Optical Buffering in Coupled-Slot Slab Photonic Crystal Waveguide with Ionic Liquid

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2020
Slow light with adequate low group velocity and wide bandwidth with a flat band of the zero-dispersion area were investigated. High buffering capabilities were obtained in a silicon-polymer coupled-slot slab photonic crystal waveguide (SP-CS-SPCW) with ...

An extremely large group index via electromagnetically induced transparency in metamaterials [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the European Optical Society-Rapid Publications, 2014
We numerically demonstrate a planar design of a metamaterial exhibiting electromagnetically induced transparency at gigahertz frequencies. The design is based on the coupling of two oppositely oriented semi split-rings in the same plane.

Tuning Multiple Fano Resonances for On-Chip Sensors in a Plasmonic System

open access: yesSensors, 2019
This paper proposed a plasmonic resonator system, consisting of a metal-insulator-metal structure and two stubs, and a Fano resonance arose in its transmittance, which resulted from the coupling between the two stubs.

Theory of a Slow-Light Catastrophe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
In diffraction catastrophes such as the rainbow the wave nature of light resolves ray singularities and draws delicate interference patterns. In quantum catastrophes such as the black hole the quantum nature of light resolves wave singularities and ...

Limits of slow-light in photonic crystals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
While ideal photonic crystals would support modes with a vanishing group velocity, state-of-the art structures have still only provided a slow-down by roughly two orders of magnitude.

Slow light enabled wavelength demultiplexing [PDF]

open access: yes2016 18th International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks (ICTON), 2016
Photonic crystal waveguides supporting band gap guided modes hold great potential to tailor the group velocity of propagating light. We propose and explore different wavelength demultiplexer design approaches that utilize slow light concept. By altering the dielectric filling factors of each waveguide segment, one can show that different
