Abstract

Recently, more and more fiber structures have been proposed and developed to generate slow light. The technology of slow light attracts experts and scholars' much more attentions because of its potential application foreground. Among all the methods of generating slow light, one of the hottest technologies is to generate slow light in fiber based on stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS), which is also a simplest and most applicable method. In this paper, slow light generation methods based on SBS with monochromatic pump, modulated pump and multiple pumps are introduced and compared. Advantages and disadvantages of all the above methods have been discussed too..
