Abstract :
The modeling of slow light SOA with highly angular dependent high-contrast grating (HCG) mirror is presented. HCG is useful to realize slow light SOA with avoiding vertical resonance. We investigated HCG structure for slow light SOA using RCWA. The result shows a possibility of compact and low power consumption SOAs.
