Abstract

We demonstrate a fully tunable microwave photonic bandpass filter fabricated with Si₃N₄/SiO₂ waveguides on a chip. The filter is based on coupled resonator optical waveguide architecture comprising a chain of eight coupled ring resonators, each with an optical roundtrip length of 21 cm (free spectral range of 1.4 GHz), with an adjustable resonance frequency, and with adjustable power coupling. The passband shows a 3-dB bandwidth of 72 MHz with at least 51-dB out-of-band rejection and features simultaneously a flat-top, a shape factor of 1.9, and a group delay variation smaller than 2 ns.
