Abstract
Photonic crystals waveguides (PhCWG), based on III-V materials are promising for high density integration of optical circuits. In slow light transmission regime, the local field enhancement scales inversely with the group velocity, thus decreasing the threshold of intensity-dependant nonlinear effects such as Kerr effects [1, 2]. We report here a comparison of four wave mixing (FWM) in III-V photonic crystals waveguides in standard and slow light structures.
