Grating Assisted Couplers (GACs) in Silicon-on-Insulator waveguides are studied experimentally as building blocks for optical integrated devices. By including them in a microring resonator configuration, we enhance the GAC wavelength selectivity and limit the resonance range of the microring. This device has the potential for small footprint, highly selective, wavelength filters and sensors.

Abstract
Grating Assisted Couplers (GACs) in Silicon-on-Insulator waveguides are studied experimentally as building blocks for optical integrated devices. By including them in a microring resonator configuration, we enhance the GAC wavelength selectivity and limit the resonance range of the microring. This device has the potential for small footprint, highly selective, wavelength filters and sensors.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
