title: Brillouin cross-gain modulation and 10 m/s group velocity.
abstract: We introduce a method of achieving cross-gain modulation and slow light using the Brillouin nonlinearity in an optical fiber. We demonstrate approximatetely 10 m/s group velocity using this technique with milliwatts of optical power at room temperature.
