Design and Analysis of Ultralow Voltage Graphene on the Silicon Rich Nitride Tunable Ring Resonator-Based Add-Drop Filter for DWDM Systems

The permittivity (real and imaginary parts) characteristics of graphene versus the chemical potential show three regions: a high absorption region where graphene behaves as a lossy dielectric medium (μc < 0.2 eV) a transition region (0.2 eV < μc < 0.6 eV) with median absorption suitable for the tuning process and a region of low absorption with a linear dependence where graphene behaves as a quasimetallic medium (μc > 0.6 eV).
