Abstract

We derive transfer functions for an all-pass ring resonator with internal backreflection coupled to a symmetrical Fabry–Perot resonator and demonstrate electromagnetically induced transparency-like and Fano-like lineshapes tunable by backreflection in the ring resonator.

Tunable Fano and EIT-Like Resonances in a Nested Feedback Ring Resonator

Kai Ma, Yundong Zhang, Huaiyin Su +3 more

In this paper, we realize tunable Fano and electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT)-like resonances in the outputs of a nested feedback ring resonator. Compared with the traditional add-drop ring resonator, the feedback arm introduces interference between different resonance modes. Using coupled mode theory, we reveal that the output Fano resonances are the interference of discrete modes and continuum modes, whereas the EIT-like resonance only appears in the over-coupled state. We experimentally confirm the two effects using optical fiber ring resonators, finding that the Fano effect can be easily controlled with phase shifts in the feedback arm. Moreover, we achieve the double Fano resonance, which displays an ‘X’ type lineshape utilizing one ring resonator, predicting it to be a good candidate in wavelength monitor. The proposed simple configuration provides a platform to study Fano and EIT-like effect, which is useful in the optical filter, fast and slow light, optical switching, and optical sensing.

Various resonance lineshapes available in a single microring resonator

Yameng Xu, Jiaxuan Li, Mei Kong

Abstract To accommodate different application requirements, resonances of microring resonator (MRR)-based devices have been developed into various lineshapes, such as electromagnetically induced transparency, electromagnetically induced absorption, and Fano lineshapes. However, these lineshapes are mainly achieved in large-footprint structures demanding precise control. Under such context, this work investigates the formation of various resonance lineshapes in a single MRR with two partially reflecting elements incorporated into the bus waveguide. The transfer matrix model of the compact structure is established with the reflective wave in the MRR included. It is revealed that the abundant resonance lineshapes originate from the mode-coupling between the Fabry–Perot cavity and the MRR. Based on this model, the formation of each resonance lineshape is analyzed. The conditions under which each resonance lineshape can occur are identified and the characteristics of these resonance lineshapes are studied. In addition, the significant role of the reflective wave in the formation of these lineshapes is emphasized. Under the theoretical guidance of the presented work, various resonance lineshapes can be achieved and designed flexibly in a single MRR. Thus, the lineshapes required for a range of applications can be realized in a simple and reproducible MRR.

Conversion between EIT and Fano spectra in a microring-Bragg grating coupled-resonator system

Zecen Zhang, Geok Ing Ng, Ting Hu +6 more

A conversion between the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) transmission and Fano transmission is theoretically and experimentally demonstrated in an all-pass microring-Bragg grating (APMR-BG) coupled-resonator system. In this work, the coupling between the two resonators (the microring resonator and the Fabry-Perot resonator formed by two Bragg gratings) gives rise to the EIT and Fano transmissions. The resonant status strongly depends on the round-trip attenuation of the microring and the coupling strength. By tuning the coupling strength, the EIT and Fano transmissions can be controlled and converted. The device performance has been theoretically calculated and analyzed with a specially developed numerical model based on the transfer matrix method. The APMR-BG coupled-resonator systems with different gap widths were designed, fabricated, and characterized on a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) platform. The conversion of resonance was experimentally observed and verified. In addition, this on-chip system has the advantage of a small footprint, and the fabrication process is compatible with the planar waveguide fabrication process.

All-optical implementation of tunable low-pass, high-pass, and bandpass optical filters using ring resonators

Ali Rostami, Golriz Rostami

Basic units for realization of all-pole and all-zero transfer functions in all-optical systems using ring resonators and electromagnetic-induced transparency (EIT) are introduced. Using the basic blocks for generation of pole and zero proposed Any type and any degree of optical filters and optical processing systems can be implemented. In this paper, z transform is used for design and synthesize of low-pass, bandpass, and high-pass Butterworth optical filters as an example. The stability of optical systems designed by the proposed structures is investigated. In addition, EIT is used for the control of pole and zero position.

Fano-Like Resonance in an All-in-Fiber Structure

Biqiang Jiang, Xuetao Gan, Linpeng Gu +6 more

We achieve Fano-like resonances in an all-in-fiber structure embedded with an in-line Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI). A fiber Bragg grating is inserted into MZI's one arm to form a resonance, which functions as the discrete state of the Fano-like resonance to couple with the continuum propagating mode of MZI in the fiber core. A theoretical model predicts the controllable resonance lineshape by changing the phase difference between the MZI's two interference pathways. Fano-like resonances with an extinction ratio over 20 dB are experimentally observed, which are reliably tuned into Lorentzian and electromagnetically induced transparency-like resonances by versatile methods. The realization of Fano-like resonances with broad tunability in this all-in-fiber structure holds potentials in fiber-based applications of sensing, signal processing and nonlinear optics.
