Direct time-domain measurement of tunable optical delay in a silicon resonating structure is presented. The structure is composed by a double-ring resonator, whose spectrum has a narrow transparency peak with low group velocity analogous to that in electromagnetically induced transparency. Effective group indices from 90 to 290 are obtained by tuning the resonator thermally. The measurements ag...

We describe semi-self-pumped photorefractive phase-conjugate mirrors based on the unidirectional ring resonator and the double phase-conjugate mirror. Their applicability to thresholding phase conjugation and one-way imaging through distortions is discussed.

in this paper, a new design of optical channel drop filter based on two- dimensional photonic crystal ring resonators with triangular lattice is proposed. the rods of this structure is silicon with the refractive index nsi=3.46 and the surrounding environment is air with the refractive index of nair=1.the widest photonic band gap obtains for the filling ratio of r/a = 0.2. the filter’s transmis...

The buried hetero-structure (BH) InGaAsP-InP waveguide is used for asystem of double microring resonators (DMR). The light transmission and location ofresonant peaks are determined for six different sets of ring radii with different ordermode numbers. The effect of changing middle coupling coefficient on the box likeresponse is studied. It is found that the surge of coupling coefficient to the ...

Bandwidth and gain enhancement of microstrip patch antennas (MPAs) is proposed using reflective metasurface (RMS) as a superstrate. Two different types of the RMS, namelythe double split-ring resonator (DSR) and double closed-ring resonator (DCR) are separately investigated. The two antenna prototypes were manufactured, measured and compared. The experimental results confirm that the RMS loaded...

we propose a new ring resonator side-coupled m-z interferometer all-optical switch throughthe pumped nonlinear directional coupler. by controlling pump power p to lead the coupler reflectivityr approaching to 1, the resonator finesse will be enhanced dramatically, and then the minimumswitching power in silica-based practice devices can be obtained. as a sample, we use a nonlinearcoupler made by...

we design a novel nano-ring resonator using two-dimensional photonic crystal (2d-phc), for bio-sensing applications. the structure of biosensor is created by two-curve-shaped ring resonator which sandwiched by two waveguides. these are configured by removing one row of air holes. the refractive index of sensing hole is changed by binding an analyte. hence, intensity of the transmission spectrum...

High sensitivity to fabrication errors is a main challenge in using high-Q resonators. Here we show that by carefully choosing the optical tuning using an evolutionary algorithm, a drastically distorted transmission function can be restored. High Q ring resonators have been shown to enable novel functionalities on chip[1,2], however the main challenge in using high Q resonators is their high se...
