Abstract:

In this paper, a three ring-resonator serially coupled is considered as an optical filter. We are going to improve the performance of the designed optical filter by increasing the quality factor and finesse of filtered wavelengths. The first and last rings are coupled to the bus waveguides that carry the input and output fields. The effect of coupling parameters and ring radii on the filtering of operating wavelengths which are between 1545-1550 nm with narrow Free Spectral Range (FSR) less than 0.5 nm is investigated. Using the transfer matrix method, all the rotating and output fields are obtained. FSR, Full Width at Half Maximum (FWHM) and Finesse (F) are evaluated by the wavelength response plots of the output ports obtained in Wolfram Mathematica. The behavior of structure is analyzed by a new approach in order to filter the resonant wavelengths of the transmission channel with higher finesse.

Opto-acoustical filter based on phoxonic crystal ring resonator

In this paper, a phoxonic crystal structure is designed that shows a complete phononic and photonic ban gap and is capable to guide the optical waves with transverse magnetic polarization and acoustic waves. The materials used in the structure are nylon and molybdenum, which have suitable refractive index and elastic constant. Also, it is worth of noting that the filling factor is 28% for the p...

Plasmonic Adder/Subtractor Module Based on a Ring Resonator Filter

A four port network adder-subtractor module, for surface plasmon polariton (SPP) waves based on a ring resonator filter is proposed. The functionality of module is achieved by the phase difference manipulation of guided SPPs through different arms connected to the ring resonator. The module is designed using the concepts of a basic two-port device proposed in this paper. It is shown that two po...

Coupled-ring-resonator-based silicon modulator for enhanced performance.

A compact silicon coupled-ring modulator structure is proposed. Two rings are coupled to each other, and only one of these rings is actively driven and over-coupled to a waveguide, which enables high modulation speed. The resultant notch filter profile is steeper than that of the single ring and has exhibited a smaller resonance shift and lower driving electrical power. Simulation results inclu...

coupled-resonator optical waveguides

A reconfigurable coupled-resonator optical waveguide made of a few directly coupled ring resonators is employed to control the delay of data streams modulated at tens of gigabits per second. A delay of 8 bit lengths (1 optical byte) with a small pulse broadening and 1 dB/bit fractional loss is achieved by using only eight rings. The limiting role of waveguide loss and spurious backreflections i...
