Experimental observation of slow light tunneling in coupled periodic waveguides

We report the first observation of slow-light tunneling between coupled periodic waveguides, designed to simultaneously support two slow-light states with different phase velocities in the same frequency range. Numerical simulations agree well with experimental results.
