Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of node interconnection in an on-chip optical interconnection network system, in particular to a four-port non-blocking optical router with low loss and low crosstalk based on a microring resonator. Background technique [0002] The core silicon and cladding silicon dioxide of the silicon-based waveguide have a high refractive index difference, so that the silicon-based waveguide can confine the optical field to the submicron level. Compared with the traditional lithium niobate system, the silicon-based waveguide based The device has a small size, and it is compatible with the traditional CMOS process. The hybrid integration of silicon-based photonic devices and electronic devices on the same chip to complete complex functions has become a research hotspot in recent years. At present, there are many silicon-based photonic devices, such as modulators, filters, reconfigurable differential multiplexers, logic d...
