Coupled Resonator Optical Waveguides: Toward the Slowing and Storage of Light

Jacob Scheuer, George T. Paloczi, Joyce K.S. Poon and Amnon Yariv

The development of a simple, solid-state-based technology to slow the propagation of light could prove an important step in the realization of the high-bit-rate communication systems of the future. The use of coupled resonator optical waveguides (CROWs) as practical elements to slow and store light pulses is one possibility.
