Abstract

Microring and microdisk resonators are used in photonic circuits to perform filter functions, serve as band- limited mirrors in lasers, compensate for dispersion and group delay distortion, are used in multiplexers in telecommunication systems, and a number of other applications such as medical instrumentation, biosensing, interferometry, to name a few. This paper outlines some challenges and solutions in this relatively new and prolific discipline.
