Time-domain analysis of resonator array buffers
Résumé
We present design and time-domain simulations of microresonator array optical delay lines. The proposed buffer consists of an n times m microresonator array unidirectionally coupled via a straight bus waveguide. We show that the use of a two-dimensional arrangement of resonators can compensate for the high order of dispersion and more specifically the third-order dispersion. Numerical calculations confirm that pulses can be stored in microresonator arrays without appreciable distortion. Finally, we briefly describe the detrimental effects of optical losses and technological errors.
