Abstract
The all-optical differential equation solver has great potential in high-speed and wide-band signal processing, such as special waveform generation and description of the complex dynamics. We propose an all-optical differential equation solver in a silicon microring resonator with tunable constant coefficient k. Using inverse Raman scattering effect, k can be tunable by changing the power of the incident pump light. The influences of the pump power and signal pulse width on the tunable range of k are investigated. It is demonstrated that k is continuously tunable in the range of 0.035  /  ps to 0.130  /  ps with the error of <5  %  .
