We experimentally demonstrate a grating-assisted silicon-on-insulator (SOI) racetrack resonator reflector with a reflect port suppression of 10.3 dB and no free spectral range. We use contra-directional grating couplers within the coupling regions of the racetrack resonator to enable suppression of all but one of the peaks within the reflect port spectrum as well as all but one of the notches within the through port spectrum.
