HCMT models of optical microring-resonator circuits
نویسنده
چکیده
1 Ringresonator modelling Optical microresonator circuits [1, 2, 3] are considered, consisting of a number of not necessarily identical circular cavities and straight waveguides, with evanescent wave interaction between these elements. A simple configuration with a single cavity and two straight bus waveguides serves as an example to explain the frequency-domain Hybrid analytical/numerical Coupled Mode Theory (HCMT) model [4, 5]. So far the implementation [6, 7] is restricted to two spatial dimensions and to TE polarization.

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...

In this paper, the possibility of using a silicon waveguide based microring resonator as a nonlinear all-optical switch is described under low power operation through a two-photon absorption effect. All-optical multiplexer/demultiplexer scheme based on two cascaded microring resonators has been proposed and described. The proposed circuits require smaller number of ring resonators and a single ...
