Temperature effects on parallel cascaded silica based microring resonator

Abstract

Optical device is a telecommunications device that uses glass or plastic media made from silica and SiO2 to transmit data using light or LED (Light Emitter Diode) as the data is transmitted. Silica is one of the materials / media that serves as the transmission of data on the component microring resonator. This paper, investigate about the characteristic of microring resonator and specifically about the temperature effect on the cascaded parallel microring resonator. In this paper, also explains the resistance of the microring resonator for the various temperatures are given. How big is the change in the wavelength shift is happening and how the resulting output of wavelength. A cascaded parallel microring resonator is simulated using MatLab to analyze the temperature effect on the ring resonator components. This simulation also uses the couple mode theory to get the value of coupling coefficient. The wavelength used in this simulation was C-Band between 1530-1565 μm. The simulations result shows the resistance of the components cascade-parallel microring resonator for a certain temperature. The simulated temperature are varied between 28° Celcius to 500° Celsius. Based on the simulation result it can be concluded that the change in temperature will change the resonance wavelength. As the temperature is increased, the resonance wavelength shifts (The increased temperature will affect to the shifting of resonance wavelength). The results of this study, a temperature parameters are given to the resilience of the microring resonator.
