Optical microresonators are characterized by a comb of resonances that preserve similar characteristics over a broad spectral interval. However, for many applications it is beneficial to selectively control of the quality factor (Q) of one or only some resonances. In this work we propose and experimentally validate the use of a resonant interferometric coupler to selectively change the Q-factor of a target resonance in an integrated silicon nitride microresonator. We show that its Q-factor can be continuously tuned from 65000 to 3 milions, leaving the untargeted resonances uperturbed. Our design can be scaled to independently control several resonances.
