Wide-bandwidth continuously tunable optical delay line using silicon microring resonators.
We demonstrate a distortion free tunable optical delay as long as 135 ps with a 10 GHz bandwidth using thermally tuned silicon microring resonators in the novel balanced configuration. The device is simple, easy to control and compact measuring only 30 µm wide by 250 µm long.
متن کاملIntegrated optical add-drop multiplexer using thermally tunable microring resonators
We present a four channel optical add-drop multiplexer based on vertically coupled microring resonators fabricated in Si3N4/SiO2. The device with a Manhattan-like geometry has a footprint of 0.25 mm and can find application in metro-networks. The individual micro-resonators have a 50 μm radius and are thermally tunable over a 4 nm range. The maximum power consumption per ring is 0.5 W. Measurem...
متن کاملNanosecond Tunable Optical Delay using Silicon Cavities
We present a tunable delay element that is inherently insensitive to free-carrier loss and achieves up to nanosecond delays even when tuned slowly. This will enable electrically tunable buffers on a silicon chip. ©2009 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (130.3120) Integrated optics devices ; (230.5750) Resonators ;(230.2090) Electro-optical devices
متن کاملBandwidth tunable filter based on silicon microring-MZI structure
A novel bandwidth tunable bandpass filter based on a silicon microring-MZI structure is proposed and demonstrated. By thermally tuning the resonance offset between the two microring resonators, and adding the two drop transmissions together, the bandwidth of the microring-MZI filter can be easily linearly tuned with low in-band ripples. Key words—bandwidth tunable; thermal tunable; optical filt...
متن کاملPicosecond all-optical switching in hydrogenated amorphous silicon microring resonators.
We utilize cross-phase modulation to observe all-optical switching in microring resonators fabricated with hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H). Using 2.7-ps pulses from a mode-locked fiber laser in the telecom C-band, we observe optical switching of a cw telecom-band probe with full-width at half-maximum switching times of 14.8 ps, using approximately 720 fJ of energy deposited in the micro...
