Active coupled-resonator optical waveguides. II. Current injection InP–InGaAsP Fabry–Perot resonator arrays

چکیده
We investigate active, electrically pumped coupled-resonator optical waveguides (CROWs) in the form of InP–InGaAsP Fabry–Perot resonator arrays. We discuss the fabrication of these devices and present measurements of the transmission spectra. The signal-to-noise ratio is found to be a strong function of wavelength and degraded rapidly along the resonator chain away from the input. Our results highlight a number of ingredients toward practical implementations loss-compensated and amplifying CROWs. © 2007 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: 230.5750, 250.5980, 140.2010.

Slowing light with Fabry–Perot resonator arrays
We analyze the transmission of light through coupled-resonator optical waveguides in the form of evanescently coupled Fabry–Perot resonator arrays. We develop a transfer matrix method to calculate the amplitude and phase responses of the arrays. We also discuss the inclusion of optical gain in the system to compensate for losses in these structures. Owing to the compact length along the propaga...
متن کاملImproved optical filter responses in cascaded InGaAsP/InP microdisk resonators
Waveguide-coupled microdisk and microring resonators as optical filters have been of great interest due to their high wavelength selectivity and ultra-compact sizes [1 – 4]. Recently, higher-order filters based on microring resonators with improved performances have been demonstrated in compound glass and AlGaAs/GaAs material systems [3, 4]. These higher-order filters show steeper rolloffs and ...

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 ...

In the paper, there are presented comprehensive noise characteristics (electrical and optical noise and correlation between electrical and optical fluctuations) investigations that were performed with the aim to clear up the reasons of short lifetime of laser diode (LD) and to find out LD design and fabrication features that can increase laser diode quality. Groups of different quality InGaAsP ...
متن کاملAll-Optical Switching in InGaAsP–InP Photonic Crystal Resonator Coupled With Microfiber
We demonstrated high-efficiency all-optical switching in an InGaAsP–InP photonic crystal resonator evanescently coupled with a microfiber. The nonlinearity was based on carrier injection by single-photon absorption of 980-nm pump light. Carrier-induced and thermally induced shifts of resonance wavelengths were observed under continuous-wave pumping. In pulse operation, an instantaneous refracti...
