Modeling and analysis of silicon-on-insulator elliptical microring resonators for future high-density integrated photonic circuits

doi:10.1088/1674-1056/21/7/074203

Abstract We propose a novel resonator containing an elliptical microring based on silicon-on-insulator platform. Simulations using the three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain method show that the novel elliptical microring can efficiently enhance the mode coupling between straight bus waveguides and resonator waveguides or between adjacent resonators while preserving relatively high intrinsic quality factors with large free spectral range. The proposed resonator would be an alternative choice for future high-density integrated photonic circuits.

Keywords: elliptical microring resonator silicon-on-insulator mode coupling intrinsic quality factor
