Abstract Ring resonator is an essential element in silicon integrated circuit, it is widely used as filter, wavelength multiplexer and switch in single-mode operation regime. As the rapid development of mode division multiplexing (MDM) technique, ring resonator that can process multi-mode signals simultaneously and uniformly is highly desired. However, the severe modal dispersion makes identical transmission for different modes very hard. In this paper, by breaking through the limitation of conventional multi-mode manipulation design with evanescent coupling or mode interference, we propose and demonstrate a multi-mode ring resonator (MMRR) inspired by the free space geometric optics. Arbitrary number of supporting modes can be achieved by simply widening the waveguide width. For proof-of-concept demonstration, an MMRR supporting four modes is fabricated with uniform transmittance. Furthermore, architecture of cascaded four MMRRs are also demonstrated experimentally.

"Advance design and day to day up-gradation of communication system is the requirement of international telecommunication. The optical communication systems involve the effective fiber coupling or splicing to meet the need of long communication channel. When the studies on both the intensive and extensive properties of optical fiber are exploring new research horizons, the effectiveness of such systems can be calibrated with transmission parameters like transmitted fractional power, which is a function of ‘spot size’ as well. Our study of fiber junctions based on fundamental parameters like wavelength, fiber profile index etc. has touched some unrevealed areas and explored some interesting results. The profile index of optical fiber has received less attention compared to other structural parameters of optical fiber but our study at important wavelengths for different profiles has shown that the less-used fiber profiles has some interesting premier outcomes, which can introduce some significant impact on optical fiber based system design and engineering. We have observed almost frequency or wavelength independent transmitted fractional power around the most used 1.55 micrometer wavelengths at some rarely used fiber profile index. Our study predicts the best and worst fiber profiles for transmitted fractional power (T ), at the same time, we have observed the fiber profile index independent region for a band of ‘T’ values. The reporting and its approach are found to be premier in this field. So, our work is reporting a comparison of effective fiber-to-fiber coupling, based on fiber profile index of different fibers. It is also giving a clear view of the wavelength dependency of effective fiber coupling for different fibers having wide range of graded fiber profiles."
