    Silicon microring resonator provides a new platform to form the building block for all-optical circuits, where it could be integrated on a single chip as a passive or active components. Here, we report a comprehensive treatment of parametric effect in a symmetrical add/drop silicon microring resonator with 5 μm radius operating within telecom wavelength spectrum or C-band ranging from 1530 nm to 1565 nm. The power outputs of the system are analyzed by using transfer matrix method. The FSR and FWHM have been optimized. The results demonstrated here will pave the way towards the new on-chip and chip-to-chip architecture and structure for low power and high bandwidth applications especially for all-optical switch and optical modulator.

    One of the critical problems in achieving a real practical all-optical switching devices is the requirement for a strong material nonlinearity. A strong material nonlinearity is crucial in order to achieve a low switching power. However, silicon-based all-optical switches require extremely high switching power due to its relatively weak nonlinear optical properties. To overcome this limitation, we have designed an all-optical switch configuration based on silicon microring resonator structure and demonstrated the switching operation based on the nonlinear effects induced by a soliton pulse. The soliton pulse induces free-carrier concentration through two-photon absorption (TPA) effect and this leads to enhance the refractive index change and enhance the nonlinearity of the silicon. Thus, the silicon microring resonator alters the nonlinear phase shift which is required for switching.
