چکیده

Microring resonator devices implemented on silicon and silicon-on-insulator substrates have a unique potential to be used in high-bandwidth multiplewavelength integrated photonic networks. A scheme for the wavelength allocation is proposed, and its feasibility is verified experimentally. The important system-level trade-offs that result from the proposed scheme, including those among bandwidth, device footprint, and electrical power consumption, are discussed as well. © 2007 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: 060.4250, 130.6750, 230.3990.

Densely integrated microring resonator based photonic devices for use in access networks.

Two reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexers, operating in the second or third telecom window, as well as a 1x4x4 reconfigurable lambda-router operating in the second telecom window, are demonstrated. The devices have a footprint less than 2 mm(2) and are based on thermally tunable vertically coupled microring resonators fabricated in Si(3)N(4)/SiO(2).

On cascades of resonators for high-bandwidth integrated optical interconnection networks.

The power penalty characteristics of high-speed optical signals transmitted through a variety of filters based on multiple microring resonator devices are analyzed by numerical simulation. The technique used here has been verified with single-ring experimental measurements. Butterworth and Chebyshev filters are investigated, as are serial cascades of resonant devices. Although the power penalty...

Vertically Coupled Microring Resonator Filter for Integrated Add/Drop Node

The add/drop wavelength filter is an essential component in the new-generation photonic network. Microring resonator filters using high index contrast (HIC) optical waveguides are recently attracting attention as add/drop filters owing to their compactness, functionality such as dispersion compensation, and ease of filter synthesis. In particular, the vertically coupled microring resonator (VCM...
