The limitation on the modulation speed of a cavity-based optical modulator posed by cavity
linewidth can be circumvented by modulating the coupling rate to the cavity. However, most …

We demonstrate optical modulation rates exceeding the conventional cavity linewidth limit
using a silicon coupling modulated microring. Small-signal measurements show coupling …

Systems of coupled cavity modes have the potential to provide bright quantum optical states
of light in a highly versatile manner. Microring resonators, for instance, are highly scalable …

We derive the frequency-dependent modulation transfer functions for microring resonator
modulators, using a small-signal analysis. Modulation efficiencies are obtained in terms of …

We theoretically describe photonic manifestations of electromagnetically induced
transparency (EIT) and absorption (EIA) using co-resonant coupled microresonators (CMRs) …

In this work, we experimentally demonstrate a FSR-free, MRR-based, coupling modulator
that integrates a bent, grating-based contra-directional-coupler (contra-DC) into a microring …

Optical single-ring resonance inherently generates Lorentzian-shape magnitude and group-
delay responses, leading to critical performance limitation in photonics, cavity quantum …

Single microring resonators have been used in applications such as wavelength
multicasting and microwave photonics, but the dependence of the free spectral range with …

Next-generation integrated photonic circuits (PCs) require the combination of on-chip
coherent light sources and modulators to increase the integration density and reduce the …
