2x2 Optical Switch Based on Silicon-On-Insulator Microring Resonator
In near future, silicon-on-insulator (SOI) microring resonator are expected to be basic components for wavelength filtering and switching due to their compact size and wide free spectral range (FSR). In this paper, a 2X2 optical switch by using active microring resonator is proposed. The switch i...

| الملخص: | In near future, silicon-on-insulator (SOI) microring resonator are expected to be basic
components for wavelength filtering and switching due to their compact size and wide free spectral
range (FSR). In this paper, a 2X2 optical switch by using active microring resonator is proposed. The
switch is consists of second order serially cascaded microring coupled to a pair of waveguide. The
ON/OFF state of the design is control by electric signal which will vary the refractive index. The
device is design to operate at 1.55μm wavelength. With a 500nm x 200nm rib dimensions, the design
is proven to have single mode behaviour. Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) method
simulation by RSOFT software is use to characterize the device performance. The results show that
the 2X2 optical switch proposed can be an efficient device to be functioning in WDM application. |
