Reconfigurable silicon thermo-optical ring resonator switch based on Vernier effect control

Abstract:

A proof-of-concept for a new and entirely CMOS compatible thermo-optic reconfigurable switch based on a coupled ring resonator structure is experimentally demonstrated in this paper. Preliminary results show that a single optical device is capable of combining several functionalities, such as tunable filtering, non-blocking switching and reconfigurability, in a single device with compact footprint (̃50μm x 30μm). © 2012 Optical Society of America.
