Abstract
A dispersion tailoring scheme for obtaining slow light in a silicon-on-insulator W1-type photonic crystal waveguide, novel to our knowledge, is proposed in this paper. It is shown that, by simply shifting the first two rows of air holes adjacent to the waveguide to specific directions, slow light with large group- index, wideband, and low group-velocity dispersion can be realized. Defining a criterion of restricting the group-index variation within a
