Z-domain modeling and analysis of vertically coupled triple asymmetrical optical micro ring resonator (VCTAOMRR)

Theoretical modeling of vertically coupled triple asymmetrical optical micro ring resonator (VCTAOMRR) is developed using delay line signal processing approach. Frequency response, group delay and dispersion characteristics are evaluated in MATLAB environment. Performance in terms of free spectral range (FSR) and crosstalk of the VCTAOMRR is determined from the performance characteristics. The proposed VCTAOMRR can produce wide FSR in Thz range with very low crosstalk.
