A micro-ring resonator includes at least one first straight waveguide; a second waveguide (Arm3) and a third waveguide (Arm2), where the second waveguide (Arm3) and the third waveguide (Arm2) form a closed annular waveguide, and the annular waveguide is coupled to the first waveguide; a fourth waveguide (Arm1), where the fourth waveguide (Arm1) is coupled to the annular waveguide; and a polarization splitter (PS), where one end of the polarization splitter (PS) is connected to the fourth waveguide (Arm1), and one end is connected to the second waveguide (Arm3) in the annular waveguide. In the micro-ring resonator, a distance between two waveguides for separately transmitting different polarized light breaks a limitation of a resonator radius, and further, a distance between a TE path and a TM path is reduced.
