Valley photonic crystals (VPhCs) are an attractive platform for the implementation of topologically protected optical waveguides in photonic integrated circuits (PICs). The realization of slowlight modes in the topological waveguides may lead to further miniaturization and functionalization of the PICs. In this Letter, we report an approach to realize topological slow light waveguides in semiconductor slab-based VPhCs. We show that a bearded interface of two topologically distinct VPhCs can support topological kink modes with large group indices over 100 within the topological bandgap. We numerically demonstrate robust light propagation in the topological slow light waveguide with large group indices of similar to 60, even under the presence of sharp bends. Our work opens a novel route to implement topological slow light waveguides in a way compatible with current PIC technology. (C) 2020 Optical Society of America
