Linear-regression-based approach for loss extraction from ring resonators
Abstract:
This Letter proposes and demonstrates a linear-regression-based loss-extraction model that is applicable for all-pass rings and symmetrically and asymmetrically coupled add-drop rings. The model is derived by transforming the transmission spectra of a ring into linear relationships with no approximation. An all-pass ring resonator is fabricated to verify the model, and the experimental results indicate that the proposed model is more reliable than previously reported models [Opt. Express14, 3872 (2006)OPEXFF1094-408710.1364/OE.14.003872; Opt. Express15, 10553 (2007)OPEXFF1094-408710.1364/OE.15.010553; and J. Lightwave Technol.16, 1308 (1998)JLTEDG0733-872410.1109/50.701410].

RLC Circuit as a Damped Oscillator
Consider a series RLC circuit. Here, the presence of resistance in the circuit leads to energy loss due to joule heating in the resistance. Therefore, the total electromagnetic energy in the circuit is no longer constant and decreases with time. Since the magnitude of charge, current, and potential difference continuously decreases, their oscillations are said to be damped. This is...
