  • Publication number: 20250293792
    Abstract: An integrated photonic device independently directs each channel of a multiplexed input optical signal received from a corresponding one of N input port to one of N output ports, each multiplexed input optical signal including N channels. The device includes: N input waveguides; secondary waveguides; wavelength-selective filters, each: i) including a ring resonator, ii) being optically coupled to a corresponding one of the N input waveguides and a corresponding one of the secondary waveguides, and iii) being switchable between a first state in which an optical signal in a corresponding one of the N channels is coupled from the corresponding input waveguide into the corresponding secondary waveguide and a second state in which the optical signal in the corresponding one of the N channels is not coupled into the corresponding secondary waveguide; N multi-wavelength mixers; and N output waveguides.

  • Publication number: 20250164692
    Abstract: Optical waveguides with adiabatic bends (e.g., hybrid partial Euler bends) are described herein. The optical waveguides are implemented into various optical components of integrated photonic devices to improve the performance of the optical components and allow for more compact manufacturing of the integrated photonic devices. In one example, a waveguide having a geometric path defined in a plane and a width perpendicular to the geometric path is described. The geometric path includes an adiabatic curve connecting a first inflection point to a second inflection point on the geometric path, the adiabatic curve including: a circular arc subtending an angle from a first endpoint to a second endpoint; a clothoid connecting the first inflection point to the first endpoint of the circular arc; and an anti-clothoid connecting the second endpoint of the circular arc to the second inflection point.

  • Publication number: 20240272364
    Abstract: A device includes: a wavelength generator configured to output optical signals at a pump frequency and at first and second frequencies both different from the pump frequency, the wavelength generator including: a planar bus waveguide; a main ring resonator; a first heating element thermally coupled to the main ring resonator; an auxiliary ring resonator optically coupled to the main ring resonator; and a second heating element thermally coupled to the auxiliary ring resonator; and an electronic control module in communication with the first heating element and the second heating element, the electronic control module being programmed to control a detuning of a main ring resonance frequency from the pump signal frequency via the first heating element, and to control a spectral position of an auxiliary ring resonance frequency to produce optical signals at the first and second frequencies from the optical signal at the pump frequency.
