arXiv preprint arXiv:1707.05180, 2017•arxiv.orgThe fundamental lower size limit in wavelength selecting structures is explored with the aid
of the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. The analysis shows that for a given wavelength
selectivity resonating structures with optical feedback have the smallest dimensions.
Experimental results obtained with integrated optics microring resonators (Q~ 3.4 x 10^ 4)
confirm the analysis. In addition, a discussion is given on the validity of the uncertainty
principle in terms of hidden variables or restricted knowledge on the system in question.
