Simulated responses of optical filters with 3 and 5 coupled ring resonators. The responses as functions of both FSR (for ring resonators with arbitrary size, in bottom x-axis) and absolute wavelength detuning (for ring resonators with properly designed physical dimensions in section 2, in top x-axis) are shown. Inset: schematic drawings of filters comprised of 3 and 5 ring resonators.
Simulated power beating length, LB, between two parallel photonic wires as a function of air gap distance between them. LB represents a length within which optical power transfers completely from one waveguide to another and is calculated through the index difference between the even (nE) and odd (nO) modes. The indices are calculated using a commercial FimmWave software package, version 4.3.4.
Scanning electron micrograph (SEM) images of fabricated optical filters with 5 ring resonators.
Experimental transmission responses of optical filters with 3 and 5 coupled ring resonators. The measured out-of-band rejection ratio (~40dB) for optical filters with 5 resonators is limited by the sensitivity of the experimental setup and can be larger.
Experimental transmission responses of optical filter with 5 coupled ring resonators containing two FSRs.

Ultra-compact 5th order ring resonator optical filters based on submicron silicon photonic wires are demonstrated. Out-of-band rejection ratio of 40dB, 1dB flat-top pass band of 310GHz with ripples smaller than 0.4dB, and insertion loss of only (1.8±0.5)dB at the center of the pass band are realized simultaneously, all within a footprint of 0.0007mm² on a silicon chip.

... The 3-dB bandwidth of the resonant peak is ∼1.5 nm, as indicated in the zoom-in transmission spectra in Figure 2(d). It can be further expanded by cascading multiple microloop resonators to form a high-order filter, just like the flat-top filters based on cascaded microring resonators [35], [36]. When the temperature rises due to the microheater, the refractive index of silicon is changed, leading to the variation in the effective index of the edge state. ...
