Abstract(in English) We theoretically investigate the design of a wavelength-selective switch (WSS) based on semiconductor quadruple series-coupled microring resonators (MRRs), using the Butterworth and Chebyshev filter conditions for improvement of its filter characteristics. In the calculations, propagation and coupling losses are also considered, which have never been considered in the design of high-order series-coupled MRRs. In addition, the Vernier effect is also used in the design to expand a free spectral ranges (FSR) and wavelength shift of the WSS. It was found that the Chebyshev filter condition is highly useful for both the improvement of filter characteristics, and the expansion of the FSR and wavelength shifts even when there are some losses in MRRs.
