Popis: |
Photonic microring resonators are used in a variety of chip-integrated sensing applications where they allow to measure transmission intensity changes upon external signals with a sensitivity that scales linearly with the Q-factor. In this work, we suggest to exploit the nonlinear self-phase-modulation effect to increase the overall sensitivity by an additional gain factor appearing when the operational point of the nonlinear resonator is chosen just at the cross-over from the mono- to the bistable regime. We present the theoretical idea together with a first proof of concept experiment displaying a gain factor of 22 on a chip-integrated silicon-nitride resonator. |
