ABSTRACT:
An optically coupled resonator includes a resonator body having at least one resonator sidewall and a laterally offset photodiode formed in a semiconductor substrate adjacent to the resonator body. The resonator is driven by an electric field generated between the laterally offset photodiode and the resonator body when an incident light strikes the photodiode. A device including an optically coupled resonator and a method of operating an optically coupled resonator are also disclosed.
