  • Abstract
    We propose silicon waveguide-coupled octagonal microresonators with directional coupling to single modes. Numerical simulations suggest that the k-vectors in waveguide-coupled large-sized octagonal microstructures are directional. Experiments demonstrate two modes from a waveguide-coupled 50-mum-size octagonal microresonator.
