Abstract
The necessity for efficient optical phase tuning has long been critical and is increasingly urgent in light of system scaling and growing demands of data transmission. In an integrated ring resonator, the design freedom for high efficiency is even more constrained due to its ultra-compact footprint and low cross talk requirements for large-scale operation. In this Letter, we demonstrated a polarization multiplexed microring resonator for efficient phase tuning. Experimental results indicate 55%/177% enhancement in the phase tuning efficiency compared with traditional devices operated in a pure TE/TM mode. With zero change in the fabrication process, the proposed structure provides a versatile design methodology for efficiency enhancement in the realm of data communications and optical computing.
期刊介绍：
The Optical Society (OSA) publishes high-quality, peer-reviewed articles in its portfolio of journals, which serve the full breadth of the optics and photonics community.
Optics Letters offers rapid dissemination of new results in all areas of optics with short, original, peer-reviewed communications. Optics Letters covers the latest research in optical science, including optical measurements, optical components and devices, atmospheric optics, biomedical optics, Fourier optics, integrated optics, optical processing, optoelectronics, lasers, nonlinear optics, optical storage and holography, optical coherence, polarization, quantum electronics, ultrafast optical phenomena, photonic crystals, and fiber optics. Criteria used in determining acceptability of contributions include newsworthiness to a substantial part of the optics community and the effect of rapid publication on the research of others. This journal, published twice each month, is where readers look for the latest discoveries in optics.
