Abstract:
This invention provides an optical device comprising a large group of non-uniform resonators operating cumulatively as a ‘super-ring’ to provide a controllable group delay with large bandwidth. The super-ring tuning is performed by a single control. The device may include two super-rings, each includes a large number of resonators with a resonant frequencies centered around ω1 and ω2 respectively. The invention provides multiple ways to improve the delay duration, bandwidth and the tuning speed, and overcomes the issue of non-uniformity of resonance frequency for devices incorporating multiple optical resonators.
