Low-Loss Polymer-Based Ring Resonator for Resonant Integrated Optical Gyroscopes

Waveguide ring resonator is the sensing element of resonant integrated optical gyroscope (RIOG). This paper reports a polymer-based ring resonator with a low propagation loss of about 0.476 dB/cm for RIOG. The geometrical parameters of the waveguide and the coupler of the resonator were optimally de...
