A wideband slow light with a high group index and low group velocity dispersion has been achieved. A nearly constant group index of 21, 20, 35.5 and 65 over 20.3 nm, 15.6 nm, 9.5 nm, 5.3 nm bandwidth in the environment of 1550 nm, respectively, are also obtained.Photonic crystal Waveguide Slow lightArticle
