Abstract :
The CLIPP technology enabling non-invasive on-chip monitoring of the light intensity is exploited to realize feedback controlled schemes for the tuning, switching, and locking of photonic integrated circuits. Applications to photonic architectures based on silicon photonic microring resonators and Mach-Zehnder Interferometers are presented.
