This paper presents an automatic monitor-based tuning of an APF-based pole/zero optical filter using an external modulator. The proposed algorithm uses a modulator to tune the filter center frequency instead of a tunable laser.
An automatic monitor-based filter tuning technique for APF-based silicon photonic filters is presented. The proposed tuning approach calibrates the initial distorted filter response due to process variation by adjusting the locations of each pole and zero to reconfigure to different bandwidths and center wavelengths.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
