摘要
The high-order microring filter has been proposed for a larger free spectral range (FSR) compared with the single microring filter; therefore, it has great potential to be used in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) systems. In this article, we have designed and fabricated a second-order microring filter made up of two rings connected in series with two Ti thermal heaters deposited above them. The large FSR of 56.8 nm is obtained by decreasing the difference of the radii between the two series rings, achieving similar FSRs to that of higher-order filters but with a simpler and more compact design. The average electrical tuning efficiencies of the two heaters are 0.186 nm/mW and 0.207 nm/mW, and the center wavelength of the filter can be tuned over the entire FSR with an applied electrical power of less than 40 mW.
