Abstract

Coupled-cavity waveguide reflectors suitable for use in high-Q reflective spectral filters, narrow-linewidth lasers, and the like, are presented. Coupled-cavity waveguide reflectors in accordance with the present disclosure comprise multiple waveguide segments arranged in a series, each segment including a tooth having relatively higher refractive index and a gap having relatively lower refractive index, where the lengths of the teeth and gaps are based on the position of their respective segments in the series. The lengths of the teeth and gaps are selected such that the reflectivity of the segments align at only a single wavelength, thereby enabling very narrow-linewidth operation.
