Coupled Mode Theory in Time Model of Ring Filters • Resonator oscillates at natural frequency of chosen resonant mode M. Popovic (milos@mit.edu)
Coupled Mode Theory in Time Model of Ring Filters • Resonator oscillates at natural frequency of chosen resonant mode • Higher order mode shows radiation loss in dielectric resonators (bending loss here) M. Popovic (milos@mit.edu)
Coupled Mode Theory in Time Model of Ring Filters • Resonator oscillates at natural frequency of chosen resonant mode • Higher order mode shows radiation loss in dielectric resonators (bending loss here) • Absorb loss into a complex frequency variable M. Popovic (milos@mit.edu)
Coupled Mode Theory in Time Model of Ring Filters • Resonator oscillates at natural frequency of chosen resonant mode • Higher order mode shows radiation loss in dielectric resonators (bending loss here) • Absorb loss into a complex frequency variable • Decay rates due to coupling to waveguides M. Popovic (milos@mit.edu)
Coupled Mode Theory in Time Model of Ring Filters • Excite resonator via input waveguide M. Popovic (milos@mit.edu)
Equivalent Circuit • Mapping to electronic filter synthesis (1930s) gives flat-top high-order designs • Filter determined by ring resonances, coupling and losses Ring filter model Equiv. CCT Γ M. Popovic (milos@mit.edu)
Thru In wo wo wo Drop High-order microring channel add/drop filters Third-Order Filter (N=3) • Flat-top filter synthesis calls for coupling resonators with identical resonance frequencies • leads to use of identical rings… M. Popovic (milos@mit.edu)
