Abstract
We present add-drop filters manufactured as ring resonators in commercial 130 nm SOI CMOS technology with thermal tuning. Their thermal impedance has been dramatically increased by the selective removal of the substrate resulting in a 20,12× increase in tuning efficiency for 100, 30 micron radius device.
