High speed modulation in the optical domain has enabled communications exceeding> 1Tbps data transfer speeds via overcoming the electrical energy-bandwidth tradeoff. The weak photon interactions give rise to wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) which has multiplied the capable capacities across many optical devices via bus waveguides. However, many integrated photonic filters & demuxes depend on continuous heating elements being applied to large ring resonators to control their add-drop functionality, potentially limiting the device density and power efficiency of these systems.A Bragg grating is formed by a periodic pattern of changes in the refractive index of a material. When light is incident on a grating, some of the light is reflected, while the rest of the light passes through it. The wavelength of light that is reflected by the grating is determined by the period of the pattern. Bragg gratings are easily integrated onto a photonic chip by varying waveguide widths.
