What is the velocity of slow light in weakly disordered optical slow-wave structures?

Abstract

In an optical slow wave structure, even small disorder (e.g., few nanometer roughness) can greatly limit by how much the light velocity is reduced. We derive an analytical result for the slowing factor as a function of (weak) disorder, in agreement with experimental observations.
