Ring-resonator filters do not require facets or gratings for optical feedback and are thus particularly suited for monolithic integration with other components. Ring resonators find applications not only in optical networks, but also as sensors. The required passband shape of ring resonator-filters can be custom designed by the use of configurations of various ring coupled resonators. This book describes the current state of the art on these devices with respect to design, fabrication and application. |

| Publisher Description: This book is all about integrated ring resonators made out of optical waveguides in various materials for di?erent applications. Integrated ring resonators are used to build optical ?lters, lasers, sensors, modulators, d- persion compensators, just to name a few. The book covers the range from simulationofvariousringresonatorcon?gurationstothefabricationprocesses currently used, to the description of the application of integrated ring re- nator in various ?elds. The book presents a summary of the activities in this ?eld form the past to the current state of the art giving several examples. The book is written for students, graduates, professionals, academics and industry working in this exciting ?eld. The examples in literature used in this book have been collected over four years, categorizing the di?erent examples into what are now the chapters of this book. Integrated ring resonators have been and still are a fascinating class of devices and have interested me since the beginning of my PhD in 1999. I am therefore grateful to the entire integrated ring resonator community for providing me with exciting and cutting edge research material which e- bled me to write this book. Due to the enormous amount of publications in this attractive ?eld, I hope, that I was able to refer to most of the work done so far and would be thankful if I was made aware of any "undiscovered" work. Asresearchonintegratedringresonatorsisongoing, Iwouldalsobehappy to receive material for my database which can then of course be included in further publications. |
