Array of Fabry-Pérot waveguide resonators with tunable coupling

arXiv:1304.7013 · doi:10.1063/1.4820915

Abstract

We demonstrate the elements of a coupled-resonator optical waveguide in a side-coupled Fabry-Pérot configuration, and show that the coupling rate between adjacent waveguides can be widely tuned through the thermo-optic effect. The device is linearly scalable and can be combined with other integrated devices, with applications as an optical delay line or as a key element in a cavity-QED based quantum simulator.
