Reflection-type slow light optical switches using current injection

Reflection-type slow light optical switches using current injection

A slow-light reflection-type switch with crossing angle of 30-degree is demonstrated. Switching operation is realized using current injection. We obtained an extinction ration of over 15dB due to enhanced equivalent index change by slowing light.
