Optical dispersion compensation (ODC) devices are disclosed. In one aspect, an ODC device may include first and second groups of optical resonator devices coupled together to compensate for optical dispersion by collectively delaying light. The first group of optical resonator devices may have a first group delay curve with a convex shape between peaks in frequency. The second group of optical resonator devices may have a second group delay curve with a concave shape at a peak in frequency. The ODC device may also include one or more thermal devices to change the temperature of the first group of optical resonator devices as a group, and one or more additional thermal devices to change the temperature of the second group of optical resonator devices as a group. Methods of making and using the ODC devices are also disclosed, as well as various systems including the ODC devices.
