Abstract
We demonstrate a slow light modulator with Bragg reflectors for the first time. The length of electro-absorption modulators could be reduced to 20μm, which is 10 times smaller than conventional electro-absorption modulators. A novel coupling scheme for slow light gives us a low insertion loss of 2dB.
