Characteristics of slow light from coupled fiber ring resonators. Issue 2 (3rd March 2016) - Liu, Xu
ABSTRACT: This article optimizes the conditions for the formation of slow light produced by coupled fiber ring resonators. Investigated parameters include the number of rings, ring length, splitting ratio of couplers, and ring losses. The optimized parameters included two rings in the resonator, equal length of the rings, and splitting ratios of 90:10 and 50:50 for the couplers. Under these conditions, a slow light delay time of 32.0668 ns was achieved, which corresponds to a group velocity of 3.43 × 10 7 m/s.
