Ultra-compact Si-SiO 2 microring resonator optical channel dropping filters
Brent E. Little,James Foresi,Günter Steinmeyer,E.R. Thoen,Sai T. Chu,Hermann A. Haus,Erich P. Ippen,Lionel C. Kimerling,Wayne Greene +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a compact optical channel dropping filter incorporating side-coupled ring resonators as small as 3 /spl mu/m in radius is realized in silicon technology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polarization-transparent microphotonic devices in the strong confinement limit
Tymon Barwicz,Michael R. Watts,Michael R. Watts,Miloš A. Popovi cacute,Peter T. Rakich,Luciano Socci,Franz X. Kärtner,Erich P. Ippen,Henry I. Smith +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the first polarization-transparent add-drop filter from polarization-sensitive microring resonators is presented, which shows almost complete elimination of polarization sensitivity over the 60nm bandwidth measured, while maintaining outstanding filter performance.

Method and apparatus for generating frequency modulated pulses
James F. Brennan,Patrick C. Chou,Harry L. T. Lee,Rajeev J. Ram,Hermann A. Haus,Erich P. Ippen +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a method and apparatus for generating short (e.g., picosecond) pulses using a 2-section 1553 nm DBR laser without gain switching nor external modulation was provided.
Proceedings Article
Transparent wavelength switching of resonant filters
Milos A. Popovic,Tymon Barwicz,Fuwan Gan,Marcus S. Dahlem,C.W. Holzwarth,Peter T. Rakich,Henry I. Smith,Erich P. Ippen,Franz X. Kärtner +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate the first fully hitless (no out-of-band bit loss/signal distortion) wavelength switching of microphotonic add-drop filters using silicon microring resonators, based on a new general approach for complete disabling of resonant-system amplitude and phase responses.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Reconfigurable silicon photonic circuits for telecommunication applications
Tymon Barwicz,Milos A. Popovic,Fuwan Gan,Marcus S. Dahlem,C.W. Holzwarth,Peter T. Rakich,Erich P. Ippen,Franz X. Kärtner,Henry I. Smith +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the recent progress towards telecom-grade reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexers (ROADMs) based on silicon microring resonators.
