We experimentally demonstrate critical coupling in miniature grating-coupled resonators known as cavity-resonant integrated-grating filters (CRIGFs). Using previously proposed asymmetric grating coupler designs for non-linear CRIGFs, and introducing a dedicated variant of a coupled-modes theory model to estimate physical properties out of the measured reflection and transmission characteristics of these resonators, we demonstrate fine control over the in-and out-coupling rate to the resonator while keeping constant both the internal losses and the resonant wavelength. Furthermore, the critical coupling condition is also observed to coincide with the maximum enhancement of the second harmonic generation signal.

We report on the design of cavity-resonator integrated grating couplers for second-harmonic generation. The key point is that the base pattern of our grating coupler (GC) is made of two ridges with different widths (bi-atom). Thus, we reach extremely high Q-factors (above 10) with structures whose fabrication is not challenging, since the bi-atom base pattern is close to that of the surrounded distributed Bragg reflectors (DBR).

In this paper, dielectric Cavity-Resonant Integrated-Grating Filters (CRIGFs) are numerically optimized to achieve extremely high-quality factors, by optimizing the cavity in/out-coupling rate and by introducing apodizing mode-matching sections to reduce scattering losses. Q-factors ranging between 0.1 and 50 million are obtained and two different domains are distinguished, as a function of the perturbation parameter which controls the cavity in/out-coupling rate.

Cavity resonator grating filters (CRIGFs) integrated on lithium niobate on insulator (LNOI) with electrical tuning elements are reported. The resonance wavelength of the filters is in the 780 nm range. Integrated thermo-optical tuning range of 2.

We report on an extended cavity quantum cascade laser based on a cavity resonator integrated grating filter (CRIGF) that acts as both cavity end-reflector and spectral selector. Stable, mode-hop free, single-mode emission around 2150 cm is obtained over large injection current ranges (more than 50 mA) with a typical threshold around 290 mA. A digital frequency tuning over more than 65 cm is obtained by changing the periodicity of the CRIGF ending the extended cavity.
