Abstract :
A dynamic photonic crystal structure based on a triangular lattice and GaAs is proposed for optical storage and processing. Preserving the translational invariance and the adiabaticity, the structure exhibits electromagnetic induced transparency and can compress larger bandwidth pulses than the previous square lattice models.
