Abstract

A compact coupled-resonators flat-band filter with a large bandwidth (~3.3 nm), large free-spectral range (~18 nm), low crosstalk (<-12 dB) and negligible insertion loss (<0.5 dB) is demonstrated on a silicon-on-insulator platform with focused applications for on-chip optical interconnects.
