  • Abstract
    Loss mechanism of slot ring resonators based on straight bus-ring directional couplers is experimentally analyzed by characterizing add-drop ring resonators and ring enhanced Mach-Zehnder interferometers. The coupler is proved to be the main parasitic loss, thus giving interesting directions to improve slot waveguide micro-ring resonators for strong light-matter interactions.
