coupled-resonator optical waveguides
A reconfigurable coupled-resonator optical waveguide made of a few directly coupled ring resonators is employed to control the delay of data streams modulated at tens of gigabits per second. A delay of 8 bit lengths (1 optical byte) with a small pulse broadening and 1 dB/bit fractional loss is achieved by using only eight rings. The limiting role of waveguide loss and spurious backreflections i...
متن کاملCoupled Resonator Optical Waveguides
Properties of the recently introduced family of coupled resonator optical waveguides (CROWs) are reviewed, particularly with reference to CROWs designed as planar waveguides in two-dimensional photonic crystal slabs to enhance nonlinear interactions and develop novel all-optical information processing devices. Topics covered include: pulse propagation both in the nondispersive approximation and...
متن کاملCoupled Resonator Optical Waveguides (CROWs)
We investigate theoretically and experimentally the characteristics, performance and possible applications of coupled resonator optical waveguides (CROWs). The ability to engineer the dispersion properties of a CROW and especially the ability to realize ultra-slow group velocities paves the way for various applications such as delay lines, optical memories and all-optical switching. Simple anal...
متن کاملApodized coupled resonator optical waveguides using the longitudinal offset technique
In this paper, an experimental demonstration of the apodization of coupled resonator optical waveguide (CROW) devices through the longitudinal offset technique is presented for a 3 racetracks CROW device and compared against the uniform case.
متن کاملActive coupled-resonator optical waveguides. I. Gain enhancement and noise
We use a tight-binding formalism in the time domain to analyze the effect of resonant gain enhancement and spontaneous emission noise in amplifying coupled-resonator optical waveguides (CROWs). We find the net amplification of a wave propagating in a CROW does not always vary with the group velocity, and depends strongly on the termination and excitation of these structures. The signal-to-noise...
