title: CMOS compatible reconfigurable filter for high bandwidth non-blocking operation.
abstract: We design, fabricate and characterize a CMOS-compatible, Mach-Zehnder-coupled, second-order-microring-resonator filter with large Free Spectral Range and demonstrate non-blocking thermo-optical filter reconfiguration. The device consists of 10-μm radius silicon microring resonators, with an FSR equivalent to that of a structure consisting of 5-μm radii microrings. The structure is reconfigurable over an 8.5 nm range without blocking other channels in the network.
