Abstract :
We demonstrate the first lateral waveguide-coupled octagonal microresonator filters in silicon-on-insulator (SOI). We also propose a SOI electro-optical modulator by use of a round-cornered octagonal microresonator with a selectively integrated ring-shaped metal-oxide-semiconductor capacitor.
