  • Abstract
    We demonstrate enhanced self-phase modulation through short dispersion-engineered slow light silicon photonic crystal waveguides using picosecond pulses. The measurements are supported by simulations, highlighting the simultaneous reinforcement of nonlinear absorption and free carriers.
