Microring Weight Banks
Abstract
Microring weight banks could enable novel signal processing approaches in silicon photonics. We analyze factors limiting channel count in microring weight banks, which are central to analog wavelength-division multiplexed processing networks in silicon. We find that microring weight banks require a fundamentally different analysis compared to other wavelength-division multiplexing circuits (e.g., demultiplexers). By introducing a quantitative description of independent weighting, we establish performance tradeoffs between channel count and power penalty. This performance is significantly affected by coherent multiresonator interactions through bus waveguides. We experimentally demonstrate these effects in a fabricated device. Analysis relies on the development of a novel simulation technique combining parametric programming with generalized transmission theory. Experimental measurement fitting of an 8-channel weight bank is presented as an example of another application of the simulator.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
