Athermal Operation of Silicon Waveguides: Spectral, Second Order and Footprint Dependencies

We report the design criteria and performance of Si ring resonators for passive athermal applications in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM). The waveguide design rules address i) positivenegative thermo-optic (TO) composite structures, ii) resonant wavelength dependent geometry to achieve consta...
