Abstract:
The transfer function of the microring resonator is deduced, and the effects of the normalized loss, coupling coefficient and surrounding media on the resonance performance are investigated thoroughly. Utilizing the improved fused tapering technique and ingenious self-coiling coupling method, a high-quality microring resonator (radius of about 500 m) with larger extinction ratio (>10 dB) and sharper resonance is designed and fabricated by a segment of continuous sub-micrometer fiber. The microring resonator constructed in this way demonstrates extremely small connection loss with communication fiber in contrast to the planar waveguide technology.
