Abstract :
High-contrast optical filtering is demonstrated using cascaded silicon microrings. We report an experimental measurement of a record 100 dB pass-band to stop-band contrast, tunable 12–125 GHz passband full-width at half-maximum, band-center insertion loss ripple 
, and a group delay ripple 
, using transverse electric polarized light.
