摘要：
We report on the design, fabrication and optical characterization of a slow light waveguide created using a linear array of coupled resonators in a large cross-section rib waveguide. Structures with as many as 25 high aspect ratio resonators are experimentally investigated. The measured propagation loss, group velocity, and delay-bandwidth product (DBP) are presented. The metric DBP/unit loss is also introduced, with a value 38/dB. Finally we discuss a method for further reducing loss in the slow-light rib waveguide. (C) 2010 Optical Society of America
