Abstract:
We report a Fano resonance-based electrically reconfigurable add-drop filter using a microring resonator-coupled Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) on a silicon substrate. Our experiments reveal a pair of complementary Fano resonance line shapes that can be electrically tuned and output coupled from the MZI output ports. A near symmetrical resonance peak can be flipped to a near symmetrical resonance dip by applying a forward-bias voltage of less than 1V across a laterally integrated p-i-n diode in the MZI non-resonator-coupled arm. Our scattering-matrix-based modeling shows good agreement with the experiments and indicates ways to enhance the resonance routing functionality. Our work demonstrates the feasibility of an integrated reconfigurable add-drop filter with actively interchangeable throughput and drop ports.
