A dual-microring resonator replaces one of the couplers of the Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) to achieve a widely tunable twin-fano resonance, which originates from the interference and coupling of mode in a dual-microring resonator. The slope can be tuned in a wide range from -84.2 dB/nm to 91.0 dB/nm by metal heaters integrated on one arm of the MZI, and the resonant wavelength fixes when slope changes. The “X-type” spectrum is shown by self-alignment, which means manual alignment to form “X-type” line is unnecessary after tuning dual-microrings because the “X-type” line can be produced easily by the difference of two correlated spectrums rather than two independent spectra. Meanwhile, it shows high wavelength resolution of 1 pm with an ideal resolution of 0.4 pm in the region of the slope of 127.4 dB/nm, which can be applied to wavelength monitoring with ultra-high resolution.
