On-chip switching of a silicon nitride micro-ring resonator based on digital microfluidics platform.
We demonstrate the switching of a silicon nitride micro ring resonator (MRR) by using digital microfluidics (DMF). Our platform allows driving micro-droplets on-chip, providing control over the effective refractive index at the vicinity of the resonator and thus facilitating the manipulation of the transmission spectrum of the MRR. The device is fabricated using a process that is compatible wit...
متن کاملPiezoelectrically tuned silicon nitride ring resonator
Typical integrated optical phase tuners alter the effective index. In this paper, we explore tuning by geometric deformation. We show that tuning efficiency, VπL, improves as the device size shrinks down to the optimal bend radius, contrary to conventional index-shift based approaches where VπL remains constant. We demonstrate that this approach is capable of ultra-low power tuning across a ful...
متن کاملOn chip tunable micro ring resonator actuated by electrowetting.
We demonstrate a tunable on chip polymer waveguide micro ring resonator (MRR) device. The transmission spectrum and extinction ratio are controlled by electrowetting on dielectric (EWOD), via the application of voltage to a droplet. As a result the droplet covers a portion of the MRR waveguide and changes its effective refractive index. This method can be used for efficiently tuning a variety o...
متن کاملCompact narrow-linewidth integrated laser based on a low-loss silicon nitride ring resonator.
We design and demonstrate a compact, narrow-linewidth integrated laser based on low-loss silicon nitride waveguides coupled to a III-V gain chip. By using a highly confined optical mode, we simultaneously achieve compact bends and ultra-low loss. We leverage the narrowband backreflection of a high-Q microring resonator to act as a cavity output mirror, a single-mode filter, and a propagation de...
متن کاملPlasmonic Adder/Subtractor Module Based on a Ring Resonator Filter
A four port network adder-subtractor module, for surface plasmon polariton (SPP) waves based on a ring resonator filter is proposed. The functionality of module is achieved by the phase difference manipulation of guided SPPs through different arms connected to the ring resonator. The module is designed using the concepts of a basic two-port device proposed in this paper. It is shown that two po...
