The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Microfabricated phononic crystal devices and applications (2008, background): “Delay line miniaturization is enabled by ‘slow sound’, the acoustic equivalent of the widely researched ‘slow light’ in photonic crystals [40].”
Large-scale quantum photonic circuits in silicon (2016, background): “Photon-pair generation rates in these structures scale as S4, where S = ng/n0 is the slow-down factor [50, 89, 90], with one factor of S2 associated with an increased accumulated nonlinear phase shift and another factor of S2 resulting from spatial compression of the electromagnetic field.”
Slow Light Enhanced Nonlinear Optics in Silicon Photonic Crystal Waveguides (2010, background): “The second mechanism for nonlinear enhancement is due to the optical energy density increase associated with slow light [ 23 ].”
Fundamentals and Applications of Slow Light (2010, background): “Macroscopic slow light includes photonic bandgap structures [18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23], single and coupled ring resonators [24, 25, 26], fiber or waveguide grating structures [27], and so on.”
