Fano-Like Resonances in Coupled Sagnac Interferometers Formed by a Self-Coupled Waveguide
Hamed Arianfard, Tim Weiss, Yang Yang +3
We demonstrate Fano-like resonances in silicon-on-insulator (SOI) nanowire-based coupled Sagnac interferometers (SIs) formed by a self-coupled waveguide. By adjusting the reflectiv…
