Abstract

The transfer function of a photonic filter is significantly influenced by the profile of the waveguides forming the device. In this work we discuss requirements for devices based on two geometries, rib and wire shaped waveguides in Silicon-on-Insulator, from both the modal and polarisation standpoints. General guidelines and recommendations for the design of single-mode and polarisation-independent ring resonator filters with large Free Spectral Range (>30nm) are given, together with supportive experimental results.
