Abstract
In the examples provided herein, a system includes an input waveguide, where a first end of the input waveguide is coupled to a light-emitting optical transmitter to allow the emitted light to enter the input waveguide, and a first ring resonator tunable to be resonant at a first resonant wavelength, wherein the first ring resonator is positioned near the input waveguide to couple a light at the first resonant wavelength from the input waveguide to the first ring resonator. The system also has a bus waveguide positioned to couple the light at the first resonant wavelength in the first ring resonator to the bus waveguide, and a mechanism to wavelength-tune the first ring resonator to a particular wavelength.
