Abstract
A first portion of incoming light and a second portion of incoming light travel in opposite directions within a first optical waveguide. A ring resonator in-couples the first portion of incoming light and the second portion of incoming light from the first optical waveguide, such that the first portion of incoming light and the second portion of incoming light travel in opposite directions within the ring resonator. A second optical waveguide is disposed to in-couple the first portion of incoming light and the second portion of incoming light couple from the ring resonator, such that the first portion of incoming light and the second portion of incoming light travel in opposite directions within the second optical waveguide away from the ring resonator. One or more photodetector(s) are optically connected to receive the first portion of incoming light and the second portion of incoming light from the second optical waveguide.
