Abstract
We present an efficient design for direct coupling between a spiral-shaped and a semicircle-shaped microcavity (μ-cavity) as an alternative to traditional evanescent wave coupling for planar integrated photonic technology. We observe the preservation of the high Q-value of the spiral oscillator when coupled to a semicircle under current injection using an
