Dynamic group velocity control in a mechanically tunable photonic-crystal coupled-resonator optical waveguide

We describe a tunable slow light device based on a photonic-crystal with a mechanically adjustable coupled-resonator optical waveguide structure. The lateral energy confinement is implemented along a lattice shear defect with the group velocity actively controlled by shifting the shear along the def...
