Abstract :
We demonstrate theoretically a silicon resonator reflector, having no free spectral range, using a distributed Bragg reflector and a contra-directional grating coupler. The spectral response of the device meets numerous commercial specifications for a clear window of 5 GHz and a channel spacing of 100 GHz.
